Hobbies
I build LEGO cities, collect fossils, dive, and play the keyboard.
Building & robotics
I've been building LEGO since I was three: 350+ sets so far, including 15+ cityscapes. I taught robotics through Roboknights at DPS R. K. Puram, ran a YouTube channel with 10K views, and started a LEGO lending library across Delhi NCR.
Palaeontology
I read a lot about the Late Jurassic: the Morrison Formation, giant sauropods, and the debate over warm-blooded theropods. Natural-history museums are a favourite stop. I also look for fossils along coastlines and in quarry spoil, usually ammonites or belemnites, sometimes a shark tooth. My favourite find is a palm-sized ammonite roughly 150 million years old.
Underwater
I'm a licensed PADI diver, swimmer, and snorkelling enthusiast. I've dived at the Great Barrier Reef, Mauritius, Okinawa, Half Moon Bay, and Sri Lanka.
Music
I have a diploma in electronic keyboard and music theory from Trinity College London. A scholarship took me to the Delhi School of Music, where I studied with Mr Akshay R. Saxena, a Cannes Film Festival-awarded artist. I've played for audiences of 500+ across two concerts.
