WHERE DID YOU GROW UP? WHAT WAS YOUR PATH TO CAL?

I grew up in Chandigarh, a beautiful city right in the foothills of the Himalayas in India. I did my A Levels from Singapore and applied to Cal hoping to do mathematics and/or public health!

I love dancing; I trained to be a professional for a good number of years, both Indian and Western styles.

Dance, particularly hip-hop and salsa; I can imitate characters from some movies quite well (I think!); I am also a trained debater and adjudicator in the WSDC format.
