I am a postgraduate student of Ancient History and Archaeology at the University of Mysore, with a bachelor's degree in English, History, and Political Science from Christ University, Bangalore. My academic journey is shaped by a deep curiosity about the past and a strong drive to understand the cultural and historical landscapes of India. Since my school days, I have travelled extensively across the country, visiting historical sites and monuments that have sparked my interest in archaeology and heritage studies. I am particularly drawn to the study of folk cultures and regional histories, which I believe hold valuable insights into the lived experiences of communities across time. My passion for history and archaeology continues to grow through research, fieldwork, and the exploration of diverse cultural narratives.
