Well, let me introduce myself. My name is Akash Jindal and my friends call me "Aawara_The_Maverick" and I live in Noida, India.

Qualification/What I do:
I am an Health Informatics Specialist/Tech Entrepreneur who works with Open-source technologies. I did my grad and joined a Semi-government organization in Delhi as a tech support officer(contractual). Fortunately, right after that, I joined a Norway based IT company that works on Public health issues and design IT solutions.

After working with the Norway based company for a long time, I started my own venture with two of my friend's. We are an IT company that mostly works on Open-source technologies. We are very fortunate that we have got a good list of clients e.g. WHO(World Health Organization) India, WHO HQ, PATH, GIZ Malawi, etc.

Hobbies:
Talking about my hobbies, I am a trained theater actor and was active in theater for almost 6 years. I worked with multiple theater groups in Delhi/NCR. At one point it was my dream to become a full time actor but I had to take care of some responsibilities and I served it as a hobby only. I have done some short films(in which some of them were never released for one or another reason :D ) an ad with TOI. I have done almost 80 street plays and 15 theater productions. I have recently acted in a feature film for my friend name "12 Bulbule" which is due to release later this year.

Traveling is something I love the most. It just makes me a better person. With my every journey I try to push myself as much as I can, to know my limits, to know how far I can go.

I have traveled in several countries; London(UK), Cape Town(SA), Oslo(Norway), Dar es Salaam(Tanzania), Dubai(UAE), Lilongwe(Malawi), Kathmandu(Nepal), Dhaka(Bangladesh), Kabul(Afghanistan), Muscat(Oman). I have also traveled in twenty-four states and five UT’s in India. I have enriched myself with a lot of experience with this travel.

Well, I have a lot to share, and would love to hear your story :)
