Just trying to create a tiny ripple in our universe.

A quote I live by:

<aside> 💡 "Engage in action, do your work, but with full control of your mind and senses. And be aware that the work you do should contribute in some way, directly or indirectly to the higher good of humanity."

📖 My Story

I was born in India and moved to Canada when I was 7 years old. Moved around a lot until Toronto became my home.

I'm passionate about building something meaningful and impactful during my stay on Earth.

For the past three years I was passionate about quantum computing. It's going to change the world and I want to explore the potential of using quantum computers to simulate the human brain and understand consciousness. (This is at least 10-20 years away)

So in the meantime here's some stuff I've done:

• Built 8+ quantum computing projects on Github using qiskit, cirq, pyquil, pennylane & strawberry fields, q#, etc.
• Audited the first quantum computing grad course from University of Toronto and completed my capstone project on Quantum Machine Learning
• Won the CES Young Innovators to Watch Award in 2019 for my project on classifying breast cancer data on a quantum computer
• Attended 3+ quantum computing hackathons by Rigetti, IBM, and Xanadu where I won their Quantum Machine Learning Hackathon
• Was a quantum computing research intern at Zapata Computing during my gap year from high school and university
• Spoke about Quantum Computing at international conferences and companies like Microsoft and Google
• Was featured in the Globe and Mail a couple of times
