Adi hails from the distant town of Acton, MA (it's a 30-minute car ride). He came to Tufts interested in the sciences and in singing; luckily for him, he soon stumbled across an amazing band of hooligans known as the Tufts Amalgamates.

In elementary school, Adi played the piano for several years, partook in recorder karate where he earned his black belt by squeaking out a take on the Star Spangled Banner à la Fergie, and had a brief entanglement with the trombone. However, he eventually settled on using his vocal cords when he could no longer stand lugging around a heavy, oblong case on the school bus every Tuesday morning. Adi became involved with choir and a cappella soon afterward so he could terrorize innocent civilians in the Greater Boston area and beyond.

Adi is glad he can channel his innate urge to make noise constantly into something productive (maybe) with the 'Mates. His hobbies include doing one-handed cartwheels, watching horror movies, and showing people pictures of his dog, Merlin.
