BIO COMING SOON!

Embark on a journey through the dynamic world of public transportation with me! My passion ignited four years ago during my internship with Mumbai Metro, and since then, there’s been no looking back. I spent the year of 2022 interning with Amtrak, for the Gateway Program alongside participating in YPT events. I now work as a transportation consultant at WSP. Experiencing living in different cities I’ve delved into the intricate urban fabrics of cities like Mumbai, the NY metropolitan area, and Washington, DC, gaining insights into what makes or breaks their functionality. Beyond the hustle of transportation planning, I find solace in the world of cinema, exploring new cities, and savoring global cuisines. And hey, how about signing up for a petition to bring techno trains to the USA? Let’s not just dream it; let’s develop the business plan and make it a reality!
