Hi! I'm Richa :)

Austin, TX

I'm an electrical engineering student at the University of Toronto who loves building things that live in the real world.

Currently, I'm:

  • Working on hardware engineering at Base Power
  • Learning more about energy, compute, hardware product design, and advanced manufacturing
  • Thinking about what makes ambitious technical companies grow and scale
  • Trying as many new ice cream places as possible!

Previously, I helped build Meraki (UofT's Socratica node and builder community), and worked across power electronics and wearable hardware.

I'm especially excited by people building hard, useful, and slightly unconventional things.
