HI THERE! I’M AMAN SARAF
Welcome to my Webpage!
ABOUT ME
I am an extremely curious and inquisitive individual. I am fascinated by the smallest of things that make up our world, wanting to understand how they work. This fascination has led me to love the Sciences and Engineering, that truly empower me to understand and interact with the world. I now look to enhance my education with experiences that put me at the forefront of research and allow me to have a meaningful contribution to shaping the lives of those around me.

I am majoring in Electrical Engineering at IITK. My interests include Circuits, Machine Learning, and Embedded Systems. I have received awards for Academic Excellence and have also been awarded the prestigious Honda YES scholarship.
Pace Junior Science College
May 2015 - May 2017
Over the two years of preparation for the JEE Advanced, the most important thing I learnt was to meet failure in the face and be ready to go again the next second. I developed a deeper appreciation for Science and Math, and the role they have played and continue to play to take the human civilisation forward.
Bombay Scottish School, Powai
June 2004 - May 2015
I am a proud alumnus of Bombay Scottish School, Powai. Over the 12 years, this institute gave me the confidence and courage to pursue my dreams and to take as many people along as I can.
