Hi, I'm Ishaan!
This is a website that will showcase what I'm up to, which includes my interests and anything I have worked on or will work on.
You've caught me actively working on this website, and I'm expecting to make continuous updates.
Hopefully the next update to be around October 31st, 2025.
I'm working on site styling and adding projects and achievements onto here.
A Little About Me
I'm interested in deep problem-solving, whether that's through the constructs of software engineering or the analytical rigor of research. I'm keenly interested in developing/applying algorithms effectively and understanding robust system design. I'm also passionate about clean coding practices.
I believe in continuous learning and am always looking for new challenges and opportunities to grow.
Projects & Achievements
Here's where my projects will be. I'll update them here as I go with them. I wanted to link my competitive programming profiles, publications, and GitHub repos.
Current Interests
Architecture Design
I'm captivated by how spaces are conceived and structured, blending aesthetics with functionality. I've taken two industrial design classes, and they have really taught me how to think about design. I actively try to in my everyday.
Financial Markets
The intricate systems within financial markets present a constant stream of complex puzzles. I particularly love the logic puzzles and am actively doing some in the green book.
Pure Math
There's an undeniable allure in the abstract beauty and rigorous logic of pure mathematics, fueling my interest. While that sounds too elegant, it is true. I've taken more math classes at tech because I'm interested. Some of them include: Linear Programming, Automata & Complexity, and Differential Equations.
Satire & Stand-Up
"I find the art of satire and comedy to be a profound form of creativity, dissecting society with wit and precision." is what Gemini told me to write here, but I've been interested in comedy sketches ever since I was a kid. Some comedians I like include John Oliver, Dave Chappelle, Hasan Minhaj, and Jon Stewart.
Bouldering
I've recently started climbing, and I'm already addicted. It's incredbily exciting to try and figure out how to do a particular climb. I'm currently on the blue tags (V2 - V4).
Badminton
I play badminton at the badminton club at GT. Still a beginner, the club is the best place to learn for me.
