I’m Sai, a senior majoring in mechanical engineering. I’m originally from Hyderabad, India, but I also spent my high school years in Shrewsbury, Mass. I’m the brakes team captain on the SuperMileage Team, and I’ve been involved with the team since my freshman year. Additionally, I work as a Supplemental Instructor and will be the SI for MIE 340: Fluid Mechanics this semester. Outside of school, I’m into playing badminton, chess, and watching a ton of cricket. I also love hiking whenever I get the chance, and lately, I’ve been experimenting with cooking—nothing fancy yet, but it’s a necessary skill once you realize you won't have UMass's #1 dining around after you graduate.
