• Tell us more about your subject. How did you develop an interest in this field?

  I have been coding since I was 17. At first, I used to hate it because I didn't have a mentor that could introduce me to programming in an easy-to-understand manner. I struggled for almost a year as it was one of my main subjects in college and I couldn't afford to fail. I tried and somehow, I was able to get a hang of it. Later when I tried digging deeper (not just for passing exams but for learning and making something new), I discovered that I started to like it. I liked to create things while coding and that's where my interest developed. In order to prevent others from facing the issues I had, I thought of taking the initiative to help others in my teaching.

• What or who is the motivation behind you choosing to teach & why?

  I am passionate about teaching. It's the best service you could offer to enlighten young minds.

• How does your work help society?

  Teachers are the pillar of strength and the guiding force in a student's life. By using my teaching skills, I can aware of the new generation of our society and will make them more conscious about new technologies as I belong to a technical background.

• If you had to think of a role model for your work, who do you think of & why?

  I guess now-a-days I don't have any real role models anymore. I'm still impressed by what many game devs achieve, considering the insane complexity of modern games that at the same time have to be extremely optimized.

• Tell us about your hobbies outside teaching.

  Apart from teaching, I really enjoy badminton.

• Do you have an anecdote to tell us about your student or professional life?

  I would like to tell everyone to love your life and live in your present. Don't stress out. You might never know what God has planned for you. Enjoy your life and make the best memories.
