Frequently Asked Questions
‘Can be paraphrased as questions I frequently ask myself’
What kind of work do I enjoy? What kind am I good at?
I enjoy and can vouch for my storytelling, writing, design thinking. I love to be on stage, have spent a little more time backstage. I absolutely enjoy public space design, and have lots to learn there.
What is my lifestyle vision?
Designing and living in a ‘township’ where there’s a community kitchen, giant playground with abstract jungle gyms, community garden and lots of activities that bring people together to create and relax.
Will I travel for work?
Work for travel, travel for work, travel for travel? I’m all in.
When was the last time I truly felt blessed to eat my meal?
I remember making Aloo paratha a couple of months ago(made with the underlying principle ‘never too much stuffing’). I remember saying thanks with every single bite, eating with all my heart and tastebuds.
