Greetings!
I am Chintan aka Chitu aka Chantz aka CD Kumarrrrr aka Tank. It changes depending upon the person you talk to, about me.
Masters in Computer Science, that's what I am pursuing at Indiana University, Bloomington.
How I reached here? Caught a flight from Mumbai, India to Indianapolis, Indiana.
Well that's the short story anyways. To begin with born, in Ahmedabad brought up in Mumbai. Nothing beats Mumbai - The People, The Culture, The Climate, The Food & The Warmth. But I am sure my fellow earthlings will have the same things to say about their hometown & I respect that.
After completing my high school from Mithibai College I pursued my Bachelor's in Computer Enggineering from University of Mumbai. During this period I was involved in professional multi-media production work. It was very exacting work but smiles on the faces of the clients after they have seen the final product always egged me on.
Speaking about my "Me-time". I used to do Stamp collection but am pretty dormant in this after my high school. Movies, Music & Books come next. Reading a book is one great stress buster. You can create a universe of your own & live in it. Same goes for movies but according to me they are more restrictive. Music, wells thats my life saver. I am hooked to music at any time of the day.
Thanks a lot for stopping by, but I would like to request you to have a look at rest of my portal.
Have a good one!
