Interests and Hobbies

Apart from being a game developer, I enjoy Photography and Online Competitive Gaming. I was a semi-pro Counter Strike player played for SA Gaming, Chennai. Recently I started playing Valorant, a 5v5 hero shooter from Riot Games. During my free time I will hang around in the Valorant Discord Community and talk about the game and learn new stuffs from the developers.

Apart from games, I follow a number of sci-fi and fantasy genre movies and television shows (Silicon Valley fan), I spend a large amount of my free time exploring the latest technolgy advancements.
