Volunteer Experience

I strongly believe that “Knowledge always increases with sharing it”, hence I took the initiative to start the Google Developer Student Club at University at Buffalo and currently leading the developer community. The aim of the club is to help students bridge the gap between theory and practice and grow their knowledge in a peer-to-peer learning environment.

From 0 to more than 200 student developers in the community, we are able to help them gain new skills through hands-on workshops, Information sessions, project building activities, etc. about a wide range of technical topics including- Cloud Computing, Machine Learning, Data Engineering, Android Development, etc. GDSC-UB Info Sessions and Lab Workshops.

My First True Love

A passionate BasketBall player for the past 15+ years, I have played in several open-national and collegiate-national level tournaments and corporate tournaments as well. Amongst other things, Basketball has taught me a special way of life. I also enjoy reading, hiking, playing music, traveling.
