ABOUT ME

Additional Fun Facts

My name is Vivaan Khabya and I am a Biomolecular Engineering Undergraduate student at Santa Clara University expecting to graduate in 2026.

I was born in India and raised in Singapore. Upon graduating high school, I served two years of National Service in the Singapore Armed Forces, undergoing combat and infantry training and also developing administrative work experience. My service helped me gain resilience and leadership skills that now drive my academic and professional pursuits.

I am fascinated by and love learning new things about science and technology, business, governance, and current affairs, especially when these things intersect! In my free time, I like to read/listen to material about these topics, build mini-projects with the help of LLMs, and exercise.

You can find out more about me through my résumé and portfolio on this site, my LinkedIn (icon at the bottom of the page), or email me at vivaan@khabya.com.
