Introducing Myself...

I really don’t know if you are at all interested to read this post but I am still writing it only to introduce myself… but before I talk about ‘who am I’, let me clarify ‘who am I not’.

I am not a liar and a fake person.. so you can trust the below given information.. But I am even not a very great soul not to ever lie.. so I do lie sometimes but that is only for the welfare of everyone around and sometime for the aid of humor. I am not extremely generous but not even very selfish.. I do remain faire to everyone whenever I behave like selfish. As no one is perfect, there will be some negatives with me as well and that is the reason I need friend like you to tell me what are those.. so that I can at least attempt to improve myself.

So, I am Sandip Wankhade, born at Dahisawali, Yeotmal district, Maharashtra, in a middle class family. I completed my schooling from the same village and then from nearby town. Hereafter started living away from home in hostel and completed my 11th, 12th from PN Collage, Pusad and Engineering from GCOE, Amravati. I got placed in Geometric through college campus recruitment during 3rd year.

I joined this company in Sept, 2006 in Mumbai and then got shifted to Pune branch after 5 months. This is when my real professional life started. Since then I am working for the same company and so far it has given me good growth, work and international exposure. Today I am working as a Technical Lead and so far been to USA, Italy, South Korea and Canada. I am in the process of getting settled in India-Pune. As a first step had bought 2BHK Flat in Wakad (just 10 mins away from my office ;) ) and now booking Maruti Ertiga.

Apart from this, I think I am a go getting & ambitious guy with good IQ & sense of humor and one who go by the ground level realities. I love to be fit and to take exercise. In the leisure time I pursue my hobbies of reading, writing, poetry & blogging... I have written many poems & articles few of which are published on my blog. My long term career goal is to become an entrepreneur and start my own business.. I have already started preparing for the same.

I love my people and country and want to contribute towards it’s betterment. But I know by being an employed person it is difficult to have enough time, power and money to make some long lasting positive difference. This is the reason I have passion for business.. so I want to be a businessman not to earn lots of money and to lead a lavish life but to be able to help my people and country.

My philosophy of life is, “it is a game which sometimes turns into a war… so I prefer to enjoy it always, at the same time I become brave and courageous as required, to fight”
