Who @anuragkrishh?
Born and raised in Chennai, I joined engineering (ece) just to realize that it was not for me. So my four years of engineering was mostly spent trying to figure out what I can do for a living (I even tried web dev :p). Eventually ended up stumbling upon product design and deciding this is what I want to do for a living. I am not bs by "saying design is my passion and that's why I do it". It was something which I was good at, liked it and it pays well too. Checks all three boxes for me.
You can read more about my design journey here.
I ended up interning at a few places before starting full-time. You can read about them here.
So, little less formal now?
I moved to Bengaluru in August 2021 and ticked off checklist for getting my own place. Always looking for recommendations for places to explore here, hmu.
I love movies - they calm me and every time I watch a movie, I come out of the theatre in a better headspace. My personal goal for 2022 was to watch atleast 56 movies and I ended up watch 90+. 120 movies is the goal for 2023. You have an account in Letterboxd? Check my profile here.
One another thing I like is collecting posters - my room is filled with them. One fun fact : I have carried a Batman posters which is more than half my size in Bengaluru metro because couldn't find cabs.
I make memes which I post on twitter sometimes. Even though I like making memes, I hate it when people just identify me for that - main reason being I wanna be known more for my work among design groups rather than the memes. (I don't know if that makes sense tho :P)
Few other things which interest me :
Tattoos (6 as of October 2023). Marvel. Standup. Long walk. Great food (sucker for good podi dosa). Desserts.
