National-level quizzer & quizmaster
Across my time at Christ University I competed at national level on the quizzing circuit and also hosted as a quizmaster through the Christ University Quiz Association. It taught me how to read a room, think on my feet, and chase niche topics until they make sense, skills I still lean on in analytics and client work today.
