Born and bred in Tamil Nadu, India, and did my schooling & B.E at my hometown before moving to Maharashtra for my M.Tech at DIAT(DU) and Ph.D. at IIT Bombay. Now I am working as a Researcher for Hitachi Ltd Research & Development Group at Japan. I love practicing yoga and going on hikes. I am not religious, but I do visit temples/monasteries for social gathering.

We are a family of four: my younger brother, mother, and father. My father retired as a Sub-Divisional Officer from BSNL (PSU), and my mother is a housewife. I speak Tamil, English, and Hindi. Religion and caste never played any role in our family. Personally, I don't wish to follow any religion.
