Araash Ahuja
I study finance, systems engineering, and music at Penn. I'm 20, and I love to play golf and squash, eat good food, and listen to rap, house, and jazz.
This past summer I was at ICONIQ, learning how great companies are built and how investors think about growth. Before that, I tinkered with startups, sneakers, and a few half-finished projects that taught me a ton. Now, I am working on a few projects of my own, including this site!
