I spent nearly two decades in science.

A PhD in neuroscience. Research in cardiology and cancer. Years helping the world's largest pharmaceutical companies communicate the science behind treatments most people have never heard of.

I built this career far from where I started — I came to the Netherlands from India in 2006, by myself, as a student. Built a life here.

Then one chapter cracked something open. Not my capability. Something harder to name — the inner spark that made all the complexity feel worthwhile.

This page started as a private journal. It became a slower, more honest inquiry into a question I hadn't thought to ask before:

Was the race I designed still the one worth running?

I'm a scientist by training — I go inward the same way I go into research. With curiosity and a refusal to accept easy answers.

I'm also Indian (by birth), rooted in a tradition that has been asking these questions for thousands of years. Ancient clarity for modern confusion.

This is where those two worlds meet.

Not a guru. Just someone being honest about the rewrite.
