Honestly speaking I never thought I would become an Engineer. I always imagined myself in a white coat with stethoscope around the neck or found myself get indulge in watching moon at night with telescope. Or becoming a lady detective! Anything but an engineer!
Being an Engineer, my father used to tell me about the fascinating field of engineering. He is a professor and he thought me many things while in school. I somewhere knew i wanted to become like my father and so went on his path.
In Engineering University, I had brilliant teachers for Environmental and water resources related subjects and my interest grew up. So I decided to study more about our environment and behaviour of water.
I organized a 3 days water - pilgrimage on Godavari river in my town to explain people the importance of rivers in lives of earthlings. I was successful in delivering my message by combining science, spirituality and environment. This activity is now running yearly by fellow juniors.
When I look back, the journey of becoming an engineer amazes me. And I consider myself fortunate to be guided by brilliant people in life.
I am hoping to do the same for society.
