Being an introvert, you can imagine how difficult it is to write about myself. Where should I start, what exactly do I need to include, how will I link the diverse parts of my personality and interests in a paragraph or two? So, like any other true blue ISFJ, I decided to ask Sanchari to help me prepare a questionnaire and promised to take a few good portraits of her in return. Here it goes:
One line about who I am: Jack of many trades, master of some
Education and Profession: Bachelors and Masters from IIT Kharagpur. Professionally I get to work in and around computer graphics, which ties up nicely with my interest in visual media.
Interests and hobbies: Cooking, travel, photography, dabbling in web design, playing Clash of Clans or anything from Far Cry series.
Favorite pastime at present: Setting up this blog. Writing each and every bit of all the stylesheets, html code from scratch. Optimizing the server configurations for better experience of our readers.
Favorite movies: Anything from MCU. If I have to choose then may be Thor: Ragnarok, both Spider-Man movies and off course Infinity War and Endgame just for the sheer amount breath these two took out of me. Fun fact: when we got married, Sanchari was not at all a fan of action-superhero genre. But now she enjoys every bit of MCU mania as me. With me. There are too many to name outside MCU, so I’m skipping those.
Books that made a difference: I have thoroughly enjoyed reading Creativity Inc. by Ed Catmull. I have always been a fan of Pixar movies and this book provided a glimpse of how Pixar works and produces such masterpieces. Another book that I’d like to read again is India After Gandhi by Ramachandra Guha, a documentation of the history of independent India which is not taught in our schools. A special mention must go to the Harry Potter series for delivering heavy life lessons wrapped in children’s fantasy.
Personal goals in life: I’d really love to travel and experience the world. If not many places, at least some from my bucket list, like experiencing the northern lights, cherry blossoms in Japan, or spending time in an arctic cruise.
