-My guiding principles in life are Rationalism and Humanism. I believe in striving to push the boundaries of science. But this is matched by the need to innovate for a better future. I am a Tamilian born in Hyderabad and brought up in Kolar. I am naturally inquisitive, an unapologetic sceptic and have a thirst for knowledge. I am always looking for new avenues to learn and grow. I recently completed by Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering from TU Delft. I am currently working on the next generation of Automotive Radar systems for Automatic Cruise Control, Lane Change Assist, Blind Spot Detection and Cross Traffic Alert as a Radar Signal Processing Engineer.

-I enjoy sports, especially badminton and have an on-again, off-again relationship with running. I also play snooker and chess (challenge). I listen to rock, metal and hip-hop music. I am a self-taught campfire guitarist but plan to ditch the campfire title. I read both fiction and non-fiction titles when time permits. Authors that I like include Stephen King, John Grisham and Brandon Sanderson.

I believe in striving to push the boundaries of science as described wonderfully by [Matt Might](https://matt.might.net/articles/phd-school-in-pictures). But this push is matched by the need to innovate for a better future in more tangible way. I am always looking for new avenues to learn and grow in all aspect of life.
