About

About: https://lsvp.com/team/shreyam-desai/ I was a Monk practicing Vipassana Meditation in the forests of Igatpuri for a year. I stayed silent for 300 consecutive days. At the end of it all, there is a voice that doesn't require words. It sustains only on values, an internal compass. Work: Not for work's sake but for purpose. Constantly learning and unlearning: Not out of extrinsic motivation but internal drive. Relationships: Not to gain but to provide. All of them: To increase the surface area of my serendipity. Currently at Lightspeed. Excited for what’s ahead but rooted in the moment.
