Who are we even?

Hello there! This is my first blog post, as is evidenced by the title.

If you’re reading this, you are either a friend, a family member, or a curious stranger who stumbled upon this blog. Either way, thanks for stopping by! It means a lot to me. I’m excited to share my thoughts, experiences, and passions with all of you. This blog will serve as a space for me to express myself, discuss my interests, and connect with like-minded people. I’m also looking forward to learning from those who might disagree or bring new perspectives. Let’s grow together on this journey!

As of now, I am in my second year at ISI Bangalore. My mathematical interests lie in areas such as Probability Theory, Graph Theory, Statistical Inference, and Cryptography. I actively participate in several activities at the institute, including being a part of the following:

  • Cultural Committee: Collaborating to organize vibrant and diverse events throughout the year.
  • Math Club of ISI Bangalore: Engaging in discussions, competitions, and events focused on exploring advanced mathematical concepts.
  • Technical Team Head of Limit: Managing the technical aspects of the Limit Examination, organized by ISI students and researchers.
What about other subjects?
Though my degree is focused on pure mathematics, I actively explore interdisciplinary topics, often diving into physics, computer science, and even linguistics for a fresh perspective.

  • Photography, (Participated and won in Shuttersbug, a school level photography competition)
  • Chess (FIDE Rated: 1576 in blitz)
  • Watching movies, having frequently being termed as “watch-it-all” by my friends, I enjoy movies in every genre and plots and hence this obsession.

Why Start a Blog?

This blog is my little corner on the internet where I can document my journey, share knowledge, and build an online presence. It’s a way to centralize my work and thoughts, instead of scattering them across platforms. Writing here also gives me a creative outlet to express myself while keeping it accessible to friends, family, and curious strangers like you.


Adios
