About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring mid-west

ABOUT ME

i am 25 and an IT Analyst... currently on a deputation in Indianapolis, IN. I do love travelling (had a childhood dream of visiting each country on this globe)... but 25 years gone i have been to only two... which i would like to change. This dream is what brought me to CS. I have traveled but mostly it's been places and buildings. i would like to change that include people and some cultural exchange and i guess CS would be of some help here.

By now you would have figured out that i am kind of an introvert(which i guess is not a good thing to be if you are on CS but that is who i am) and take time opening up to people.... but i am a good listener and pretty open to ideas.

i like to try out new things whenever i get a chance... and live by the philosophy that 'do all the things that are there to be done'... everything gives you a new experience and some lessons

i love having long discussions and debates with people

I am honest and receptive. And expect the reciprocity.

PHILOSOPHY

"There is nothing either good or bad,
but thinking makes it so." Shakespeare

Experience anything and everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

8 day trekking expedition with a huge group of people in the jungles of Pachmarhi, MP India. extremely rigorous walks covering around 15-20 miles a day through the mountainous terrains of vindhya and satpura range. carrying a huge backpack. camping, putting up the tents lighting the camp fire, entertainment and a good night's sleep and then doing it all over again
the next day. that was something i would like to relive.

Teach, Learn, Share

more of a learner than a teacher. can pick up most of the things easily but tough time explaining things to people.

willing to share what i know
