I'm Om

I believe technology is the most powerful lever for change in society.

Working on cutting-edge technology has put me on the most interesting problems, created real value, and pushed my limits.

A philomath at heart — I love applied sciences, design, history, philosophy, nation-building…

But above all a passionate sportsman, traveler, and endlessly curious.

Origins

I grew up in Kolhapur (Maharashtra, India). Most of my childhood, apart from school, was cricket and football with my friends, roaming around farms, rivers and wells, sometimes helping my father with the family business and reading a lot of books.

There was no technology in that life :)

I was decent at studies. At 16, I got an opportunity to move to Mumbai and study at one of the best high schools with full financial support. Then Delhi for a couple of years, for college.

Those few years opened up a world I hadn't known existed.
