What do you love most about your job?

I loved the outstanding level of collaboration at my Job. It was genuinely refreshing to be part of a team that worked harmoniously towards the same goal. Our manager and directors also encouraged us to come forward with ideas. Even if they disagreed with them, they never made anyone feel embarrassed for coming up with something. The team supported one another, and if someone was having problems, they didn’t hesitate to reach out and look for help because they knew a colleague was always willing to assist.

We’ve already witnessed what AI and IoT is capable of, but this next decade will take things a notch higher. One of the most significant trends is the increasing ability of machines to learn and act intelligently. The impact of this is set to transform the world as we know it and is the source of the majority of the innovations that we’ll see in the next decade.

If you could spend the day with any celebrity or historical figure, who would it be and why?

M.S. Dhoni. The incredible success he has achieved is unprecedented and something he can really be proud of. But the glory for him has not been that easy as he went through several hardships for achieving the same which makes him a role model for people who give up their dreams far too soon.
