Background

About Rishikesh Nayar

I am a junior at UC Berkeley majoring in mechanical engineering, with interests in electrical engineering, computer science, and biology. No matter the field, I love to use what I know to build interesting things that contribute value. In the past, these have included my custom battery pack CAD designs (from my internship at Tyfast), scripting/embedded systems work, and kidney dialysis research, amongst others. I also have strong leadership and communications experience, having completed two business-oriented internships. As part of my responsibilities, I developed client relationships, identified leads, pushed Salesforce campaigns to different prospects, and increased overall brand presence. Aside from being a student, I love music, both in an academic and performance setting. I graduated from the Westminster Honors Music Program and performed with several honors choirs at venues including Carnegie Hall and NJPAC. I have also enjoyed competing in Model United Nations conferences on my high school and college teams. Let's connect! And if you have open roles or similar interests, please feel free to reach out.
