I'm a writer and researcher currently in grad school at NYU Steinhardt studying media theory & the internet, finishing in 2027. I'm drawn to what's possible in the machine age, and interested in the worlds of technology and culture. Based in New York, originally from New Delhi.

Writing

Before NYU, for nearly a year, I wrote about the frontier AI ecosystem from Bangalore, with stories including ElevenLabs' use case for India, Menlo Ventures' thesis & Anthropic investment, Y Combinator's legacy with Indian startup founders, Evolution of AI Benchmarks, the Market of Enterprise Voice AI, among others.

Comms

Even before that, I was on Edelman's health team, working with pharma and consumer health clients like Eli Lilly, GSK, Pfizer, Roche, Alcon, and HUL Nutrition.

A lot of the work involved understanding the science and regulatory context, then working with doctors, patients, and company leadership to localise global stories for India. I worked across editorial, media relations, thought leadership, and events, including product launches and communications around existing therapeutics.

Editorial

During undergrad, I led my department's editorial publication.

Questions

These are some questions that I find interesting, inspired by Patrick Collison. I'll keep updating this.

* Why was Plato against writing, even as, ironically, everything we know about Socrates comes from his writings?

* How does nostalgia or cultural attachment influence how we value old methods, even when better alternatives exist?

* How does product design change in the transition to an agent economy?

* How do economics shape the direction of semiconductor engineering?

* What is the last interface we will need?

* What makes something culturally sticky?

* What shaped the visual language of Y2K?

I love discovering new music all the time. Currently, I'm bumping Swimming Paul. My all time favorite is Blond by Frank Ocean, who imo is a pulitzer-level songwriter.
