Description

Join us as we talk to Chandhana, a TKS alumnus who has explored a variety of fields ranging from bioplastics to BCIs. Chandhana is currently working on scaling her bioplastic (that costs less than one dollar!) but is also following her curiosity through university.


Chandhana sheds light on how to decide what projects to work on, and the benefits of trying different things. She explains how the point of projects is to litmus test - if you aren’t learning and you aren’t enjoying it, maybe it’s time to move on. She also talks about the importance of working on things you are genuinely curious about and following what excites you.


Perhaps the biggest takeaway is the done > perfect mindset. Chandhana completely embodies this mindset, and she shares some specific advice for people on how to develop it. From creating artificial deadlines to the concept that it is never too late to start, this conversation will inspire you to just start. Just start on that project you’ve had in mind for a while. Publish that article, ask that person for a warm intro. Just do it.
