ABOUT ME
I was born in Mumbai, India. Left with my parents at the age of four when we migrated to Montreal, Canada. Spent nineteen years in Montreal. Everything from grade school to college and picked up French along the way.
Graduated with a computer science degree from college and continued my bachelor's in computer science as well.
Discovered the wonderful world of AIESEC at university. Biggest life changing experience ever!
After two years in computer science, I realised I was wasting my talent and that my passions lied elsewhere.
Took, the plunge and moved to Australia & am now currently enrolled (and in my second year) studying Marine Conservation with a minor in Policy.
Can not wait to see what else I decide to do!
PHILOSOPHY
Live. Passionately.
