Meeting fresh faces and making things is what I like the most. A very rare combination of an Engineer/HR & Journalist. The thirst of reading and writing has always been in my flesh and bones, but it became more rooted in the year 2009 after I completed my Engineering and started being an associate in the countries renowned publication Houses( Dainik Bhaskar, Times of India, Hindustan Times & Shree Prakashan Journal). An Explorer by mind and Blogger by heart.
