I’m Kaashvi, a 16-year-old endlessly curious about the most intricate puzzle I know, which we call the human body. Patterns fascinate me, whether they emerge in science, art, or numbers. I’m always asking questions, searching for clarity in the middle of chaos, and finding joy in the details most people might miss.
Growing up in Mumbai has shaped me in ways I cannot ignore. The city’s traffic teaches you to think fast, adapt, and change gears without warning, and I carry that rhythm into how I learn and live. I thrive in motion and noise, but I also cherish quiet moments of doodling patterns, experimenting in the kitchen (with results that range from delightful to disastrous), or dancing in my living room just because a song makes me want to move.
Beyond the classroom, I’ve explored the world through MUN debates, cricket, volunteering, and starting RedSaysGo, a project close to my heart. Music is another thread in my story. The keyboard has been my companion from crowded concerts to quiet practice sessions at home. Writing and blogging help me reflect, and often I illustrate my posts, letting curiosity and creativity meet on the same page.
A summer at Yale reminded me that imagination can become reality. It showed me that what excites me most as a student is not only gaining knowledge but connecting it across fields and experiences.
At heart, I’m simply someone who loves to learn, create, and share from helping my community to seeing how math hides inside art, I look for purpose in giving back and possibility in every question.
