About Me

Hi! Iā€™m Akash Mondal, Thank you for stopping by! I am a third year undergraduate student at Indian Institute of technology Kharagpur! This little website is my internet home to share my experiences and guide others academically based on my experiences. I am a coder and a blogger in my free time! I enjoy writing efficient code, and want to build products that make an impact on a large scale! Apart from coding I love playing badminton and reading blogs! I am also an avid cricket and Harry Potter fan. On a more personal level, I’m constantly trying to learn and explore new skills.
