Hi, I'm Harsh, and

​

my full name is actually Harshil (pronounced Har-SHEEL), an Indian name meaning "Joy" or "Joyful."

 

Hi, I'm Harsh, and my family is originally from Hyderabad, India, although truthfully, I haven't spent much time there. I was born in New York, learned how to walk in New Jersey, and then spent almost the entirety of my adolescence in the Philippines. I returned to the United States in 2010 by attending college in Boston, MA, and have since lived in Milwaukee, WI, and Chicago, IL.
