Hey folks! I'm an Oil & Gas engineer by day and a podcaster at night. Having lived in over 4 countries, if you look up the word immigrant in a dictionary you might find my picture next to the definition. When I'm not investigating the cosmic connection between immigration and Indians in America, you might catch me attempting to outrun the gravitational pull of my couch. Jokes aside, I do enjoy running and consider myself an amateur runner with two half marathons under my belt. I enjoy reading and watch way too many movies and tv shows. If you have a recommendation for a book, movie or tv show don't hesitate to reach out. Area 51 to me is more than just a podcast. It's a platform where we explore the intersections of identity, culture and the Indian American immigrant experience. While we celebrate the incredible journeys of immigrants, we also try to spread awareness and educate folks about the immigrant system with a healthy dose of humor. So buckle up folks, grab your headphones and let's embark on this journey together- one episode at a time!
