Occupation Trainer/writer
Location Bangalore, India
Introduction I love to talk, read, teach and write but not necessarily in the same order. I am passionate about teaching and I have been in this teaching/ training profession by choice and not by chance for the last 17 years. I find myself transported to another plane when it comes to teaching. I set sail professionally as an English teacher then moved on to adult training on Behavioural and Communication skills. Presently, I am a freelancer. I conduct Train the Trainer, creative writing for children, volunteer at a nearby hospital and have started a story telling and reading club for underprivileged children. Though teaching is my passion, writing satiates my inner desire to express my views on myriad topics. I have had more than 120 articles, short stories and poems published in magazines like Good Housekeeping, New Woman and Woman's Era. My articles have been published extensively in The Hindu, Deccan Herald and Jakarta Post. I am a keen observer of human nature and I write on any topic that takes my fancy. I always tell people, I write on topics that I would love to tell my children and I get paid for the advice that they don’t heed! Above all, I love my cup of tea:)
Interests Interested in People, books.
Favorite Movies Romantic to the core so love to watch love stories and cry over the same!
Favorite Music old Hindi songs.
Favorite Books Too many--- pride and prejudice, Gone with the Wind, books by Arthur Hailey, Jeffrey Archer, Frederick Forsyth, Ken Follet and Mills & Boons ( particularly the old ones)
