Please share some
of the best memories of your childhood
I have many memories of my school days when I used to be an
obedient and punctual student of my teachers. They adored me (I don’t know
why). I used to give my slam book to my teachers after my friends would pen
down the weird likes/dislikes and messages in the book. It was fun when they
used to scold me after that.
About your
education
I had my initial education from convent schools (I changed my
schooling twice). I completed my Senior Secondary Education from Ujjain and
then pursued my Engineering in Computer Science with honors from Mahakal
Institute of Technology, Ujjain.
What career did you
plan during your education days
I planned a lot. I dreamed a lot. And one such dream was of a
life I am living right now. A life of self-dependence and control. Although I
never dreamed of being an author.
I am currently working as a Systems Engineer at Infosys Limited,
Hyderabad.
