Education
BA in Philosophy, Politics and Economics (University of Oxford), supported by the KC Mahindra Scholarship, Tiara Special Grant, and a second undergraduate degree scholarship by Harris Manchester College.
These are some essays I wrote in my time at Oxford.
Before Oxford, I graduated from IIT Delhi with a five-year Integrated Masters in Mathematics and Computing in 2013. My master’s thesis was in the design of approximation algorithms for networks under Naveen Garg.
Interests
I am passionate about learning, teaching, and philosophy.
I used to be a competitive quizzer. I had my 15 minutes on fame when I appeared on some nationally televised quiz shows in my college days.
During my time in Cambridge, I’ve learnt shooting (clay pigeons), fencing, indoor climbing, tennis, squash, tango, 5 rhythms, contact improvisation, improv theatre, drawing, and cooking.
The following are some essays, notes, courses that document my learnings.
Within philosophy, I am interested in questions of authenticity and the metaphysics of the self, such as: how does our vital life force work, and what causes it to diminish or flourish? I am interested in integrating academic philosophy as well as embodied philosophical practices such as movement, meditation, and breathwork
