About The Book

CTRL+ALT+CREATE invites readers into the heartfelt journey of a 13-year-old girl discovering her love for robotics and coding while shaping a world full of possibilities. From the quiet town of Mala in Kerala to international competitions, the book highlights my journey as a national and international robotics champion, at the World Robotic Olympiad 2024. The story is told with a youthful yet wise voice, simplifying complex STEM ideas for young readers while sharing personal anecdotes from competitions, app launches, mentorships, and personal growth. CTRL+ALT+CREATE is a story not just about machines, but about making meaning, celebrating innovation, and showing that age, gender, or geography do not limit creativity.
