On this page, you can have a look at my bio, my qualifications or browse through my blog which is both technical and non-technical. You can also contact me via social media, instant message or email using on of the links at the bottom of the page. + +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. diff --git a/content/posts/welcome.md b/content/posts/welcome.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..09addf6 --- /dev/null +++ b/content/posts/welcome.md @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ ++++ +title = 'Welcome' +date = 2023-09-21T16:31:45+02:00 +draft = true ++++ +The Gist: I would like to document my experiences in life and have started a blog.
