My friends see a confidante in me and Im really lucky that Im able to stand up for them whenever I can. My previous boss tells me that I shouldve been a student counselor! I enjoy the little trivia in life and see a positive streak in all things which come my way. I love to travel, listen to music, do a little social work, and last but not least; do a little designing: interiors, cards, clothesanything which seem interesting.
