Creating content has been my bread and butter since my college days. I'm very much used to it now, and I create across different platforms!

Awareness is Everything
You are capable of doing anything you wish for. All you need is to be aware. I'm currently working on bringing awareness to students about the tools and technologies I'm familiar with.
