She previously completed her bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering and Management from Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering, in Bangalore.
In her free time, you’ll either find her in X - the Sports Centre at TU Delft following one of the many ticket hours or sipping a rich hot chocolate in the city centre of Delft.
Fun fact: She’s an ardent fan of Lewis Hamilton and so she’s always counting down to race days.
Nithin is an Out and out Coimbatore boy, born in Palakkad, Kerala. He is an old soul in a new era, who is inclined towards anything and everything creative. Art, music, dance, sports, you name it and you have his attention.
He is a Jack of all trades who hopes to be a master in Sustainable Energy Technology.
Nithin did his Bachelors in Instrumentation and Control Systems Engineering from PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore, which he claims has been the most defining period of his life so far.
His hobbies include sketching, singing, reading and dancing. He is also a black belt holder in Karate.
Messi/Virat/Nadal; if you're a fan of any of these people, you're automatically Nithin's friend.
The Italian quote "Ancora Imparo" translates to "Yet, I still learn". Every day is new learning and that's what keeps Nithin going.

Jayneel
Soni
This is Jayneel and he is indeed human. But he would rather call himself a wizard and the truth is not that far from it. Born in Gujarat and brought up in Hyderabad, he is an amalgam of traits of these cities and their culture.
As our Internal Affairs Manager, he ensures that the ISA works like a well-oiled engine, preferably " like a V8".
​
He is currently pursuing his first year of the Integrated Product Design M.Sc course. His interest is in video games, motorsports and amusing people with his jaw-dropping bad jokes.
"The impossible only needs the effort to become possible"

His Punxample: If you are thirsty, don't worry, you are 70% water.
This is Priyadarshini, currently doing her first year of Masters in Environmental Engineering (track). She is the External Affairs Manager of ISA and is responsible for maintaining relations with external stakeholders and arranging financial and material support for events.
This is her first time out of Chennai and she understands how daunting and lonely it may be for people away from home, and wants to make it easy and fun for others. She loves organising and working with money. She is passionate about contributing to the mitigation of the environmental crisis. She enjoys reading, playing board games and travelling.
Hoping for a great year and making the most of it!

Sai Pavan
Nandigam
Sai Pavan, with a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from BMS College of Engineering, Bangalore, is currently a Master's student in Sustainable Energy Technology specializing in Electric Mobility.
​
At ISA, he aims to bridge the gap between the students, the alumni of TU Delft and also come up with professional events that assist students in their careers.
​
Apart from studies, he loves to watch TV shows, work out, travel. Oh, and he also loves singing as loud as he can. Once, he lost a sense of his surroundings while listening to music and started singing loudly in the library. So, if you ever hear someone singing in the library, you'll know who it is.
Fun Fact: Sai is also the epitome of enlightenment.
Quote: "Nothing is more important than people, and giving back is always better than receiving" - Abel Tesfaye (The Weekend)
Abhiraj, a guy full of vigour and enthusiasm, comes from the capital. As a typical 'Dilliwaala', he relishes Bollywood, parties, momos and of course sarcasm.
With a bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Trinity College Dublin, he is currently a master's student in the same field
specialising in High-Tech Engineering. As the Cultural Event Manager, he aims to make homesick people (like himself) feel at home by conceptualising, planning and organising cultural events.
You have his interest if you love working out, going to concerts and cooking. He can probably talk for hours if you bring up football
in a conversation.
Fun fact: He has a record of finishing 10 burgers in 15 minutes.
