Rajiv was first introduced to fencing in high school through Daniel Costin, and he quickly came to enjoy the competition, athleticism, and mental focus of the sport. He was a several time finalist and medalist at the local and national level through high school, and continued to fence competitively during his undergraduate years at MIT.
As captain of MIT's NCAA varsity fencing team, he led the team to several top finishes in the New England Division against some of the top fencing programs in the country, earning numerous personal and team honors along the way. After graduating MIT in 2010, he continues to fence casually. He firmly believes that fencing teaches many lessons applicable to all aspects of life, and hopes to instill his passion for the sport in others.
