Fintech & Banking | YC S20 | Founder @ Decentro

About

My aim in life is to contribute to the world by solving some of the toughest problems that exist. I believe that to run a technology venture, the culture needs to be set from the foundation and only a highly knowledgeable and passionate person can get it right. That is why I strive to be a polymath. The domains that I am planning to work on (sequentially over the course of my lifetime) are - 1. Digital payments (Sending money should be as seamless as sending a message) 2. Block-chain (Helping people make sense of it and give more power to the businesses) 3. Sustainability & Climate (All geographies should be able to support life in a sustainable manner)
