About Me

MEGalomaniac: Adelaide, SA, Australia; Born and brought up in South India's metropolitan city Bangalore to an Anglo-Indian mother and Keralite father, having lived in several countries and travelled extensively, my background comprises a myriad of intertwined cultures, traditions and experiences. Straddling two worlds, the West and East, I am a Global Indian. Traditional values and competitive Indian nature combined with a wide exposure allows me to gaze through broad horizons and thus gives rise to my freethinking spirit and vociferous nature. My first five years were spent in Kuwait, preceeded by international schooling in Bangalore, middle school in Singapore, returning to Bangalore for high school. Pursuing my love for writing I graduated with a Bachelors of Arts in Journalism & Psychology in 2004, worked for The Bangalore Mirror, a daily publication owned by The Times of India Group. A keen interest for food, fuelled by a passion to pen thoughts to paper propelled my move to South Australia in Feb 2008. Since then I have graduated with a Cordon Bleu Masters in Gastronomy and Cert III Commercial Cooking at Regency TAFE Adelaide, followed by a year long stint chefing in Melbourne.
