About me

From a young age, I have been passionate about astronomy and space exploration, which led me to join the Astronomical Society of Victoria. In 2022, I graduated as the Dux of The Mac.Robertson Girls' High School, and with a strong passion for STEM, I chose to pursue Aerospace Engineering at Monash University to turn my interests into a career. Born in India and spending most of my formative years traveling around different parts of Asia with my parents, I experienced first-hand the various distinct, complex, and vibrant cultures of Asia. Then, after we moved to Melbourne, I was blown away by how all of these Asian cultures thrived together in a harmonious blend within a single city in Australia. My goal is to further strengthen the Australian-Asian ties, especially within the technology sector, to thrive as an advanced society. Aside from my tech ambitions, I am also a keen traveler, bookworm, and love meeting new people in my day-to-day life!
"Having experienced diverse cultures across Asia and Australia, I’m passionate about driving innovation in aerospace technology and strengthening Australia-Asia ties. The Westpac Scholarship empowers me to explore space sustainability and contribute to a future where technology connects and advances societies."
