Founder of CropLock, Miraya Puri is an enthusiastic student at Welham Girls' School, where she studies Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Geography, and Robotics. Miraya is drawn to the practical side of science, particularly the question of how sustainability problems can be solved with equipment that ordinary people can afford and use.

Beyond the classroom, she is also editor of two school magazines, one covering technology trends and the other covering school events, which have given her the opportunity to practice researching subjects and writing about them clearly. She also won first place at the World Scholar's Cup in 2026, an international academic competition that inspires school students toward a passion for learning and collaboration. 

These experiences gave her the confidence to build something of her own. CropLock is a project built on the belief that a farmer should not lose a season's income to a problem that awareness and equipment could have prevented. Through it, she hopes to reach farming communities that are usually the last to hear about solutions, giving them the knowledge and the infrastructure to protect their harvest, so that a season's work turns into a season's income.
