Hello :) Im a software professional with a B-Tech (Computer Science) working as a Technical Lead in the private sector. Ive been shuttling between India and Australia on work since 2016 and Im currently based in Melbourne.

Brought up with liberal values and a modern, non-materialistic outlook towards life. Interested in arts, literature, photography, cinema and music. Was a runner up of the Toto Award for Creative Writing in Kannada 2017 that is given to young artists from all over India under the age of 30. Published a few short stories in leading Kannada magazines and literary journals. Besides writing, I am interested in photography and I've exhibited my works in group and solo photo exhibitions in Bangalore. I've dabbled in short films and worked as an actor and cinematographer in a couple of projects. I've always tried to keep my creative side alive besides the office work and I would love to continue doing the same. My father was a retired Executive Engineer from... more KPTCL, and also well known portrait photographer in Karnataka. He passed away in July 2022. Mother is a homemaker (ex BSNL employee) and poet.
