In the inifinite free time I have, I enjoy exploring activities that are not directly connected to my immediate line of work. One of them being volunteering. Participate at various venues as and when as I see open opportunities and depending on my existing commitments. Currently, volunteering with SDE Skills and in the recent past, I have also volunteered to be a tech tutor at KCLS Library

Paintings/Sketches
Tried my hand at painting and sketching during this COVID era. The two paintings came out of a workshop that I attended. For sketching, referenced youtube tutorials (links provided as captions)
