Personal

I come from an army background giving me the opportunity to travel to different parts of the country while I was growing up and hence change was the only constant. I switched 10 schools in my 12 years of schooling and that has evolved me to adapt and accept change and not be afraid of it. The exposure of schooling in different parts of the country has made me develop qualities of connecting with people at a human level. Moreover, with my father as an example of being an officer in the Indian army, I have made a conscious effort of leading a disciplined and a healthy lifestyle. I have actively been involved in sports.
