About
My parents put me in a lot of extra curricular growing up, so now I have a lot
of hobbies. Welcome to Lazy Masterminds. I am currently a tech professional living in NYC. I am an expat kid and grew up in Abu Dhabi, UAE and New Delhi, India. Passionate about information security, culture, and innovation, I have one motto: create technology to aid you, not replace you. During the day, I work to make sure your financial data is protected. In the evenings, you can find me either hosting curated events for young professionals to meet in NYC over homemade food and drinks through khaa-lo or I am helping you make your closet more sustainable by upcycling your totes and jeans through my slow fashion label, by vivarmaa. The idea for khaa-lo first came when I moved to NYC in summer of 2021 and struggled to make friends. After meeting new coworkers, friends from bumble bff, and friends of friends, I started expanding my circle by inviting others for events and also helping others host food centered, people focused events to help them meet new people and form genuine connections. I currently host exclusive invite only happy hours for young professionals who are doing pioneering work and the future leaders of tomorrow to experience art through food and technology. We continue to meet monthly beyond other khaa-lo events. We have hosted 100+ people in the past 9 months in NYC and Boston but excited to meet more friends in other cities! by vivarmaa label is a decade long project. Started when I first moved to Abu Dhabi and wanted to create my own fashion-tech label, the idea was inspired by how Indian garments are made in a true slow fashion process. The line is a cumulation of traditions set by the matriarchs in my family, each a fashionista in their own way. by vivarmaa explores how slow fashion and emerging technologies can go hand in hand to preserve tradition and embrace the modern world.
