I'm a software engineer from Mumbai, India
currently living in Sunnyvale, California. I work
with Intuit, Inc in Mountain View with their
DevOps team. I have a Masters Degree in Computer
Science from Northeastern University, Boston.
Bachelors degree from KIIT University, Bhubaneswar
in Computer Science and Engg. I worked in India
for three years before arriving in the US. I
graduated in December 2018 and have been with
Intuit since. In India I've lived in Gujarat,
Mumbai, Bhubaneswar and Hyderabad. Mumbai has my
heart, of course. But I have fond memories of
every place. I speak Hindi and English. In the US,
I've lived in Boston, MA and South Bay in
California and I'd say I'm quite familiar with New
York City, too. In my free time, you can usually
find me watching something on Netflix, planning my
next vacation or reading. I'm pretty big into
reading and have a long list of books to read
every time. I'm not a huge fan of music but will
usually enjoy any foot tapping song you introduce
me to. I enjoy mainstream pop and Backstreet Boys
shall always be my favourite band because I want
it that way :P Occasionally I enjoy painting -
either at a studio or at a paint night. I also
enjoy cooking and hope to take up baking some time
soon. For trips, I usually prefer beaches over
mountains. Or anything with a water body next to
it! Because I'm better at kayaking than skiing,
haha! Currently on my list is another trip to Lake
Tahoe and the beaches of LA. I also like to travel
and I've been waiting since my teens to visit
France (I also know a bit of the language).
Currently, I'm learning to be a better driver, and
a better software engineer. Should time permit,
I'd like to take piano lessons someday. I'm a fun
loving extroverted person who loves to try out new
experiences. What I'm looking for is
companionship. A best friend for life. I like to
get to know a person for who they are. Call me
old-fashioned but let’s take it at own
pace and figure ‘us’ out the way
we like it :)
