I’m currently in my sophomore year at Carnegie Mellon University, studying Cognitive Science with an intended double major in Human Computer Interaction. I have explored fields ranging from marketing to computer science to product management, and have taken on various projects including coding, design, as well as event organization. My interest in design started young, while helping my mother create kolams: traditional Tamil decorative art composed of straight lines, curves, and loops drawn around a grid pattern of dots. This keen sense of spacing and composition stayed with me as I grew older and ventured into other means of exploring my creativity, particularly graphic design and digital art. In my free time, I love to explore other creative outlets, such as dancing, playing the violin, and diy projects. I also enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, swimming, and playing tennis.
