About 

     My interest towards the field of architecture and designing had been initially termed by me as an inclination, but as the time, progressed that interest has now become a fervent passion. The passion so intense, that in words the phrase “desire to learn” has become a misnomer. This passion transformed itself in the realms of effort into sincerity during the course of my education in the field of Architecture/Planning.

      I am an optimist who looks at every difficulty, as an opportunity to grow. My positive attitude is my strong point. If I want to do something I put every effort possible in order to achieve it. I visualize and do things in a different manner and that gives me a different perspective at doing things.  The things I valued in my life are discipline and punctuality. I am an admirer of Nature and Architecture and have a passion to travel and visit new places and experience new cultures. Apart from that I am also interested in Biking, Trekking and other outdoor activities.
