Five Years.
Three Disciplines.
One Obsession.

Before the pandemic, spending hours building and programming LEGO Boost models, not for any competition, just out of pure curiosity about how things moved and why. This is where the obsession started.

Post-lockdown, got into LEGO Mindstorms EV3 through the EDUBotics programme. The jump from Boost to Mindstorms was a turning point: suddenly the robots were more powerful, the programming more complex, and the challenges more real. Completed the EDUBotics WEdo Advanced programme and decided to take it to competition.

First competitive robotics season. Finished 12th at Regionals and 8th at the WRO India Nationals in the Robomission Elementary category, earning a Gold Badge. A strong debut at the national level.

First FTC season with Team Paraducks. Got introduced to the full FTC engineering process, designing, CAD modelling, building, wiring, and programming a competition robot. Finished 2nd in qualifications at the India Championship, reached the finals as Finalist Alliance Captain, and won the Design Award.

The biggest competitive year yet. At WRO Future Innovators Junior Nationals in Ahmedabad, finished 3rd nationally, the highest WRO placement to date. A few months later, entered the WSRO National 1 Kg Lego Sumo and won outright. Two national-level podium finishes in a single year.

Second FTC season with Team Paraducks. Finished 14th in qualifications at the India Championship, building on the previous year's experience with stronger autonomous programming and mechanism design.

Third FTC season, now as Team Captain of Boss Botix #33829. Finished 1st in qualifications at the West Regional Championship, reached the finals as Finalist Alliance Captain, and won the Control Award (2nd place overall). At the India National Championship, finished 5th in qualifications and won the Connect Award.
