Sandeep spent the formative years of his life in the Rayalaseema region of Andhra Pradesh. He grew up surrounded by books, movies and video games that nurtured a keen interest in the world around him. As a Computer Science Engineering undergraduate, he headed the Literary, Quizzing and Debating clubs. He also organized the most successful TEDx edition of his university. He was invited twice as a delegate to the HPAIR Conferences. When free, he can be found lounging in his room reading obscure trivia, chuckling at animal memes or (re)watching comic clips from his favourite Telugu movies. Sandeep believes that, at YIF, studying under the tutelage of some of the world’s best professors and in the company of fellows hailing from diverse backgrounds, will transform him into a better and well-rounded individual.
