About me
I’m currently studying mining engineering and business analytics at The University of Western Australia (UWA). I’m originally from Mumbai, Maharashtra but I've spent most of my life in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
Aside from my studies, I'm passionate about dance and sports. Dance has been a part of my life since childhood, offering me a creative outlet and a means of self-expression. I also enjoy staying active through various sports activities, always eager to try new things and challenge myself.
In essence, I'm a curious and enthusiastic individual, constantly seeking new adventures and opportunities for personal growth. Whether it's diving into the world of mining engineering, analysing business trends, or indulging in my hobbies, I approach life with a spirit of excitement and exploration.
Why I chose Western Australia
I chose Western Australia (WA) for its multiculturalism, dynamic atmosphere and its quality education.
WA also has breathtaking natural scenery and an inclusive community which made it the ideal setting for my educational pursuits.
The weather is similar to Ahmedabad’s weather with mild winters and hot summers. WA’s climate resonated with me, offering familiarity while embarking on this new chapter of my academic journey.

Career aspirations
