About Me
I have worked in various cities before moving to Toronto, where I work as a business consultant with a well-known firm. "Live and let live" is the only guiding principle in life for me and so I am quite accommodating. I have a passion for learning new ideas and skills.

Skating - in Canada, this is a life skill :)

Movies- I watch movies from around the world (Indian/Korean/Iranian/Spanish/French)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Chased the Northern Lights in Iceland and photographed them.
Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to host visiting musicians and photographers to learn more about playing the guitar and photography and possibly shoot with them.
I would love to learn how to cook new dishes from your culture's cuisine.
I can provide advice on your business ventures since that's my profession.
