We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act, but a habit."

Akshay has had a near-perfect run with academics throughout his life and as someone who recognizes that he emphasizes the need of understanding and pursuing one's area of interest regardless of the prevalent social norms. As a mechanical engineering undergraduate at NIT Nagpur, he realized his passion for Industrial Engineering and processes and he decided to take it a notch higher (literally). He was admitted as a "Boilermaker" at Purdue University, one of the most sought after post-graduate college for students globally. As a methodical person who aims to apply his learnings at work to his life isn’t enough, he is interning at Tesla Motors this summer.

He is the living idiom “Breaking the shackles” while living up to his motto to make excellence his habit. He is someone who wishes to put his skills to make positive impacts and pave a solid ground for the future. If you take a closer look at the alchemy of his character, two dominant virtues highlight themselves, that are his pioneering attitude and perseverance. A person of distinction, he puts forth his priceless experience through college, career, and academics to his ideas for the future in this wholehearted conversation you simply cannot afford to miss.
