About me
It is wonderful to reach out to you through this website! My name is Rishabh, and I started this blog in 2024 in an effort to get my thoughts out there. Granted that my mind is no Disneyland, I try to make my posts thoughtful, informative, or funny. I also see this as an avenue to meet new people, so please feel free to reach out; it’ll make my day.
A little bit about me – I’ve had a rather unconventional trajectory growing up. I dropped out of school in the middle of 11th grade to pursue a degree in electronics engineering. And after six years and two degrees in electronics engineering, I realized that I did not enjoy engineering. Instead, I had a lot more fun making music and working for my startup during those six years. In 2020, I moved to the United States to pursue something I did enjoy: Business and Management. I spent two memorable years in the vibrant but small town of Durham in North Carolina, then moved to Washington, D.C., for work. While I’m passionate about many things, my top three would likely be people, music, and airplanes, and in that order.
At my core, I’m a musician, an aspiring chess hustler, and a very typical (almost benchmark) INFJ personality type.
One of the essays on my grad school application required me to write 25 random things about myself, and this was an activity I profoundly enjoyed. In honor of that essay, here are five random things about me:
- I’ve had the same group of friends since kindergarten.
- I have a list (or an Excel sheet) for everything, including a list of all the lists I have.
- My wardrobe is composed of black and white only. It saves me the cognitive overload from deciding what to wear every morning.
- I don’t experience jet lag.
- In 2021, I watered a plant for six months and later discovered that it was not a real plant.
