About Me

I'm an entrepreneur at heart. I've built one company in India and am now building another one in Silicon Valley! I love to learn, travel, and meet new people. I have a range of interests that I'm always pursuing - I have a certification in amateur astronomy, planespotting, and cooking.

I'm laid back with an easygoing personality. I'm responsible, respectful, and low-key.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting people and learning about their life, culture, history, and ambitions. The world is too big and life is too short to travel everywhere - the next best thing is to meet new people and learn through them!

I'm currently building my second startup in Silicon Valley and looking to couch surf to learn about the place from locals.

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy a wide range of old school music - rock (Led Zeppelin), rap (Cypress Hill), and pop (Pink Floyd). I also enjoy some of the newer EDM artists and love discovering new ones (currently listening to Fakear, Boris Brejcha, Solumun).

I don't watch a lot of movies but I can watch some on repeat - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Aviator, Leon).

I mostly read non-fiction. Going to start the Innovator's Dilemma soon. Some favourite authors include Malcom Gladwell, and Seth Godin.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Won a poker tournament against top name VCs, lawyers, and other entrepreneurs.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a decent cook and love making different varieties of Indian food (there are at least 20 different cuisines!). I can cook and teach a few items from each of these.

I try to stay on the cutting edge of technology and can engage in insightful debates.
