**This account is jointly operated by me and my parents (mostly my dad, Naresh)**I was born in Mumbai and grew up in Ahmedabad and Vadodara. I completed my Bachelors degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Dharmsinh Singh Desai University, Nadiad. After that, I worked as a Software Developer for a little over 3 years before moving to the US in 2022 to pursue my Master's degree in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I am currently based in Spokane, WA and am working as a Software Engineer in a company specialising in the electrical power industry. I am on an H1B visa and am open to relocating.Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, singing, watching movies and more recently, working out. Lately, Ive also been a little obsessed with maintaining my French streak on Duolingo. I am spontaneous by nature and enjoy a bit of an adventure. I enjoy amusement parks, walking around the city and trying out new experiences. I'm very inquisitive and value having that same curiosity... more and excitement in a partner. I'd like to be with someone who can introduce me to new hobbies and interests, and perhaps someone with whom we can discover some new ones together :)
A little about my family:My dad is a retired Naval officer. He took an early retirement when I was around 10 years old, so I'm not sure if I fully qualify to be a "fauji kid". But, I do think I brought home some values from those early years. For one, I think I adapt to unknowns well and am very self-reliant. After retiring from the Navy, my dad worked as Head of Plant Operations/ Director for well-known Fortune 500 companies. My mom currently is a homeowner and previously worked as a middle-school teacher. Both my parents are now retired and settled in Vadodara. I have an elder sister who lives in Seattle and works as a Senior Software Engineer at a big tech company. Her husband is a Product Manager in the gaming industry, and they are now blessed with a beautiful child.
We are a liberal, close-knit Punjabi family. We're seeking a well-suited match for me who shares similar values and morals, and who values family relations like I do.
