How would you summarize your life at IITR?
It starts with a lot of questions, a passion to explore more, and a lot of ups and downs in the coming years.
Friends felt like family, and the chapos with seniors were always lucrative. Tried every club I could, tried all the technologies, and ultimately found my passion and skill set for what I love and really want to do.
Times have been hard. Didn’t always get what I wanted. But I can assure you guys that if you keep working and give your best, ultimately you will reach your best outputs, and time will converge everything.
