About

I do not believe a small write-up is enough to know about a person but I will attempt to give you a glimpse into who I am. Professionally, I am a 3-year old in the corporate world and just like babies at that age who explore everything, I have had the privilege to cast my exploration web far and wide. In this short span, I have worked with companies in 6 industries at different stages in their evolution in a plethora of roles allowing me to grow beyond what I could have in a single role at one company. Personally, I love getting to know new people, secretly praying for a superpower to read minds. I am curious about what makes people tick, behave in the way that they do and what brings about change in them. I am super competitive when it comes to games - board, strategy, MOBA, online gaming. I enjoy reading and sometimes write stories and poems. I love the stage and would jump at a chance to act in a play, emcee, or dance. A cup of cold (or hot) brewed coffee raises my spirits at anytime of the day, but then so does Harry Potter. :)
