After earning his law degree from Northwestern University, Subramanyam became a White House technology policy advisor under President Obama.
Before his election to the US House of Representatives in 2024, Subramanyam served as a volunteer EMT and firefighter, started his own small business in Loudoun County, and held positions in the Virginia General Assembly and the Virginia State Senate.
