This week, meet Ketaki!
Q. Where are you from and what are you doing here?
A. “Hey, I am Ketaki Joshi. I hail from Pune, also known as the “Oxford of the East,” located in western India. I am pursuing a Ph.D in Computer Science from Yale and expect to graduate in 2024.”
Q. What is your favorite thing about where you come from?
A. “My most favourite thing about India and especially Pune is the perfect balance of culture and westernization it has achieved. Being the cultural and education hub, we also interact with people from diverse national, regional, ethnic backgrounds. I believe not only Pune, but also in general the diversity of India has inculcated a strong sense of empathy and sensitivity when we interact in the society. Or as they say in India: 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam' - The entire world is my family.”
Q. Tell us about the picture you chose to represent you.
A. “Here is a photo of me in a traditional Indian dress!”
