Flashback to HackNITR 5.0 (Pic below) π
I was the one shaking on stage holding the trophy. This transition from Participant to Judge has been a massive learning curve.
Grateful for the growth.
HackNITR 5.0 Winner β‘οΈ HackNITR 7.0 Mentor.
Two years ago, I walked out of NIT Rourkela with a trophy.
Last weekend, I returned to help the next generation lift theirs.
My first time on the other side of the table. π

ALT Side by side comparison of a Participant ID card from 2 years ago and a Mentor ID card from today.
The new year started with a bang. We got into @hacknitr 7.0 and secured #TOP10. It was good keeping in mind that it was our first hackathon.
I, @gojogourav, @PadheeOmkar, @swayanshu_19 built an app called 'GeoQuest' which shows a new way to reconnect people with mother nature.
