Brief Biographical Sketch:

Hey there! I am Vish, an international student at Stanford from Tamil Nadu, India. Currently, I'm exploring several fields of study at Stanford, but I mostly will major in CS with a couple of minors all over the place. I'm passionate about the intersections of technology, public policy and political science. When I'm not drowning in a sea of p-sets, I enjoy reading and watching rom-coms. In high school, I enjoyed volunteering with educational NGOs and mentoring students in everything from CS to diplomacy. I look forward continuing my commitment to education with Splash!
