Karan Aggarwal’s Post

This is my first post on Linkedin. In fact I have become a little active on Linkedin only pretty recently. Feel free to share with anyone who you think this might be relevant to. I have been on a break from work (employment) since last almost a year.  I have been exploring about health, wellness, environment, permaculture, land regeneration, sustainable living, meditation, fasting, and bio enzymes. I have been learning more and more about human behaviour, and how one can live a very healthy, happy and fulfilling life. Just trying to showoff how smart I am.  - I represented IIIT Hyderabad and India at the ACM ICPC World Finals in 2015 at Marrakech, Morocco. - I secured AIEEE 2012 AIR : 138. Almost over 1 million students compete for AIEEE. - My score at BITSAT 2012 was 390/xxx. Hardly 100 people would have hit a score that high. - I did my internship at Google, Mountain View (YouTube) - In last 6 years, worked at places like Tower Research Capital, JaneStreet and Snapchat and Uber. - Also been one of the coaches / trainers for the team that represented India at IOI. You would have guessed that I am fucking amazing at problem solving and programming. But it took me over 6 years and multiple different workplaces and teams to realise that maybe engineering is not what I truly enjoy. I have been exploring this concept of gift economy since last couple of months, the idea is to try to live life outside this obvious paradigm of transactions. Anyway if you feel like you have interesting ideas to brainstorm in life, or you are running or have tried running or want to run any startups in future, feel free to reach out and block some time on my calendar.I would really love to know more or connect.
