About


“When you truly want something, the universe conspires in helping you achieve it”. This is a famous quote by none other than the famous author Paulo Coelho from his world renowned book, The Alchemist. I believe that your drive and passion for what you love can take you to the greatest heights and help you become whatever you desire.

I am a Software Developer by profession, working and living in Minneapolis, MN. I graduated in May of 2008 after having completed my Bachelors of Science degree from Winona State University, MN. I am Indian by origin and take extreme pride in being so. Apart from my family and friends, my passion in life is to be fit. Maybe I am an extremist or maybe not, but I love the feeling of the adrenaline gushing through my veins into my blood stream and find myself in the seventh heaven when my clothes are drenched in my sweat. Its the feeling of victory, a feeling of having a achieved something, which not only makes me a tough woman outwardly, but inwardly as well.

However, my “about” page can never be complete without the mention of my passion for Yoga. Just like most other people, I used to be a normal “gym” person, sweating it out everyday on the treadmill, which many a times would lead to boredom and lack of motivation to push myself just a little bit extra everyday. My restlessness to change my workout regime forced me to start looking into other kinds of exercises when yoga popped up. CorepowerYoga (www.corepoweryoga.com) is a company which has its yoga studios in 6 different states around the United States and hires some of the finest instructors to lead its classes. So I went in for its trial week in one of the studios here in Minneapolis, MN and boy was I hooked! Ever since then I never stopped going because I knew I had found my bliss. Made a multitude of friends and sharing the same goals and mindset made it so much easier for all of us to get along. Yoga came to me at a time when I had hit rock bottom and needed to recuperate and rediscover myself. In my opinion people of all age groups should happily embrace it and get marveled at the massive changes it brings about in every person.

I am also a huge fan of running and will be taking part in my first 5K ever :) Other than that I love swimming, reading and listening to music which suits my mood at any given time. I firmly believe that its the finer things in life which most people miss out on, which have the mammoth capacity to hold an insane amount of positive energy to give us the power to achieve the greatness which is inbuilt in each one of us.

I have always wanted to bring that greatness out in every person I get to meet or whose life I am able to touch in a good way, and as we all know that words have mighty power in them, I hope to use this website in being able to reach out to one and all. I hope you do appreciate my writings and express your opinion by sending your feedbacks which would help me in self-improvement. Thanks a tonne for visiting my page!
