Chennai

Since school days, I was interested in coding. My sister was pursuing computer science during that time and my interest spiked after reading her books. After taking online courses, I started designing websites as a hobby. I also started answering coding related question and posted my work on online. I got many projects from the US, too. 

When I was in studying second-year in college, I got a job offer from the US.  When I joined there for an internship, there were many challenges compared to our country. We have to make our clients understand what we are doing and only if they are satisfied, they agree to give the project. In the beginning, I had trouble communicating with the clients. To develop my communication skills, I started attending many business meetings, where I did not interact in the beginning. I just observed them. 

Now, I am back in India and work for US clients from here. I didn’t have much financial support from my family. I earned money from my hobby and thus paid for my college education too. 

As I work according to the US time, I don’t get much time to spend with family. But they understand the nature of my job and everything is well.
