hi, i'm
Parjanya Shankar
CS @ UIUC · building towards quant research
First-year Computer Science student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, with an intended Maths minor. I got 99.9 percentile in Physics in JEE 2026. Currently obsessed with the card game Wizard. I also read… a lot.
About me
There's a lot happening in tech right now, from AI and space to VR and clean energy, and more ideas around than anyone could build. The hard part is turning one into something real, and that's what I'm trying to get better at.
I'm a student, so mostly I'm here to learn: about myself, about other people and about how the world works, and hopefully find ways to make it a bit better as I go.
