I was born in Mumbai and grew up in Dubai. A loving and religious family moulded me into what I am today, as did the grilled chicken and the sausages. Though being the official food taster in the family, I also took as much interest in sports, especially soccer and went on to play for my school and later on the University. After successfully messing up the junior school choir song, I decided to pay more attention in my art class and thankfully realized my talent in it. So much so that I studied it further and opted for an art oriented career, picking up a few awards along the way. And thanks to the love and support of great friends, and of course the hair pulling nature of my profession, I took a liking to the outdoors and adventure sports. The mornings are the best part of my day, expect for weekends which I rather start late and relaxed with music or films. I love the festive seasons too, of course Christmas being the most dear. I wish to travel and see as much possible of the world in the near future, paint more pictures, listen to more music and most surely try out more cuisines.
Education/Profession
Having done my schooling from Dubai, I got my Bachelors in Commerce and Masters in Advertising from Pune. My interests in arts led me to study design and later on choose art direction as a profession. I presently work as Creative Controller (Art) for a reputed advertising agency in Mumbai and aim to reach greater heights in my profession, acquiring more skill and knowledge along the way.
Family (settled in Mumbai)
My Dad, after a long and successful professional career in Dubai, spanning about 30 years, currently runs his own business there and is a consultant to a few others. My Mom is a housewife, but has lived and worked in India before being in Dubai. And I have a sweet, loving elder sister who is currently working in the US.
Partner preference (from a Mumbai settled family)
Its comforting to be in the company of like minded people. Anyone who seems fake, selfish or unambitious is surely a turn off. A person who believes in nurturing a relationship based on trust and love and who helps in emotional, spiritual and intellectual growth is surely admirable.
