About
I'm Naman. I grew up in India and Singapore, and now live in Boston, where I study Computer Science and Business at Northeastern.
I got into software during my first semester of college. Since then, I've worked at startups, Philips, and Sonos, and a lot of side projects. Lately, I've been interested in backend systems and tools that make building software easier.
At school, Director of Software Engineering at TAMID, and developer at Code4Community (pro bono Software for non profits). Outside of that, I like playing guitar, music, lifting, and Clash Royale.
