I was born in Bhagalpur and lived near Nepal border for 5 years before moving to Jamshedpur where I stayed for 10 years and did my schooling. My family shifted to Patna after that, and I landed up in Bangalore in 1997, where I did my Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical). I opted for an IT career instead. I used to be a good student and topped my class most of times. I have lived and studied in various locations in India, so I know what I am talking about, most of the time. My social views are liberal, my politics are moderate. I always have shown keen interests towards sports and extracurricular activities.
