BIOGRAPHY
Hi, I'm Akhil S Nair, a Software Engineer and a master's student in computer science at UIC. Born and raised in India, I've traded the vibrant spices of home for the world of algorithms and innovation here in the US. Outside the digital realm, I'm either jamming on my guitar, engaging in tactical mayhem in Rainbow Six Siege (I like my peace with a side of chaos), or striving to balance cricket and gym sessions as a wannabe fitness guru. Here's to mixing passion with a dash of fun!
"I am a human being with thoughts and feelings, just like you. And I'm also a human being with a job to do."- Lord Michael Scott
