The Diagnosis

Sahil is a walking contradiction wrapped in a hoodie. On paper, he is a Computer Science student who can explain async/await in his sleep and has opinions about Vim vs VS Code that he will share unprompted. In practice, he also firmly believes that music peaked in 2009, kids these days have no respect, and the best way to fix a bug is to restart your computer (full shutdown, not that soft reboot nonsense).

As a Resident Advisor, he is the reluctant dad of his floor: knocking on doors at 2 AM to ask people to keep it down, writing incident reports with the gravitas of a Supreme Court ruling, and pretending he did not see that beer can. As a startup enthusiast, he is currently disrupting the AI-powered blockchain-enabled industry (still in the ideation phase, deck coming soon, for real this time).

The Grind

CS Studentat University of Cincinnati

Writing code that compiles on the 47th try. Proficient in: Stack Overflow copy-paste, blaming the linter, and convincing the professor that the deadline extension is a form of self-care.

Resident Advisorat The Floor You Fear

Professional dad of 40+ residents. Incident reports written with the seriousness of a constitutional amendment. Has mastered 'The Knock' - loud enough to wake you, patient enough to wait. Has seen things. Cannot unsee them.

Startup Founderat TBA (deck coming soon)

Currently disrupting the industry. Which industry? Yes. The deck is 90% done (it has been 90% done for 8 months). Has a logo, a .com domain, and a Notion board with 200+ tasks. This is the year. For real this time.
