03 / Problem solving

Competitive Programming

I regularly break problems down, recognise patterns and compare approaches to find efficient solutions. I focus on time and space complexity, edge cases and the assumptions behind each approach, refining it towards an optimal solution.

Leadership & Community

VIT Pune MUN (Model United Nations)

Research Head & Director, Wassenaar Arrangement · 2024–25

Conference leadership. For the 10th edition of our flagship conference with 400+ delegates (participants), I interviewed and evaluated Executive Board candidates, then directed the Wassenaar Arrangement committee. I held full responsibility for the committee and its debates, coordinated volunteers and support requests, served as the bridge to the central team and evaluated delegates alongside two experienced judges.

At the closing ceremony, I delivered the committee closing speech and vote of thanks, then announced the winners before hundreds of attendees.

Research & writing. Led research discussions to decide agendas for our events and prepared detailed delegate study guides. Interviewed domain experts and public figures for our newsletter “Colloquium”, manually transcribed hours-long conversations and edited them for publication.

Created “This Week in Pictures” posts covering major developments in global affairs, the economy, science and technology, the environment and society.

Outreach. Researched hundreds of suitable sponsors, partners, guests and speakers, then wrote personalised outreach emails to each of them.

08 / About me

Before college, there was Discord.

At 14, I started running international communities. A server with 1,500+ members, a custom Discord.js bot and a month-long Notion build came before the degree.

How I got started

“Do so much work that it would be unreasonable for you to not be successful.”
