Arts
Music and dance have been a big part of my life since elementary school, from weekly Bhangra practices in Georgia to closing out school showcases with my band.

DANCER, MANAGER & MC · 4TH–11TH GRADEI joined Georgia’s largest Bhangra academy as one of its first students in 4th grade and drove from Montgomery to Cumming, GA every week for Sunday practices (about 8 hours a week with the commute).
Team manager
I handled logistics for our twice-a-year Atlanta Hawks game performances and coordinated with Georgia Tech’s ATL Tamasha for our November 2024 show.
MC
I MC’d the academy’s May 2025 recital.
Performing
Numerous performances, including UGA India Night (2x) and Georgia Tech’s ATL Tamasha (2x).
Guitar
GUITAR & BASS · 6TH GRADE–PRESENTIn middle school I worked toward Baldwin’s “Guitar Legend” status (Royal Conservatory Level 8 plus a 20-minute solo), something only a small percentage of students end up finishing.
Guitar took a back seat for a while in high school, but I picked it back up with my garage band, where I play guitar and bass.
Showing Our Other Side
LAMP’S ANNUAL TALENT SHOWCASE · 9TH GRADE–PRESENTGarage band
Our student band plays school-wide events like SOOS and Prom, and we were picked over several other bands to close the show as the final act two years in a row.
Cultural Indian dance
As co-choreographer, I’ve helped put together 12–15 songs, built the music mixes in iMovie, and led 12+ weeks of rehearsals each year, teaching choreography and setting formations.
