a little about me

Aakriti's mascot
01 / BUILD

I like ideas and their impact before I like solutions.

I'm a computer engineering student interested in the space between technology, design, business, and human experience. I like understanding a problem deeply, imagining what could exist instead, and building products that have a reason to be there.

02 / CREATE

Things I keep coming back to

I'm not particularly interested in building things just because they can be built. I'm more interested in the messy space before that, finding the real problem, questioning assumptions, thinking about the people involved, and figuring out whether an idea can create something genuinely useful.

03 / QUESTION

The other things that live in my head.

When I'm not building, I'm usually thinking about things that have no obvious answer. Philosophy, consciousness, human behaviour, society, absurdism. I draw abstract art, write poetry and blogs, and generally have a suspicious amount of curiosity about why people are the way they are.

04 / EXPLORE

And then I go outside.

I like unfamiliar things. New places, new people, spontaneous plans, business ideas that start as ridiculous conversations, and experiences that make my heart beat a little faster. I think some of the best ideas come from getting out of the environment you're used to.
