Interests
“You can do anything you set your mind to.”

Algorithms
I love solving riddles and problems and building stuff from scratch. My strong suit is that I don't give up without a fight. When trying to find the solution to a problem, I will not quit until I find at least one. The satisfaction I get from solving a problem can really make my day.
Music
I can listen to music all day. I have a varied taste of music and I listen to it at work, during sports, riding my bike, on the train... I mostly listen old songs of indian artists like rafi , kishore , lata mangeshkar etc
Sports
I couldn't live without sports. In the weekend you will find me playing basketball - just check out my Runkeeper. Once or twice a week, you'll find me in the gym or at the tracks
Travel
I am pretty much enthusiast about travelling. So far I have visited mountains in sikkim , beaches in maharashtra and odisa liki in puri , Goa beahces etc , historical places like ruins of nalanda , shanti stupa in rajgir & sarnath , hill stations like kodaikanal , lovavala , matheran , panchgani , mahabaleshwar and many more. Living in India I feel still I have 90% of the explorations yet to be done.
