About Karthik.K
Here’s a short Bio:
I’M A COMPLETE TECHNOLOGY ENTHUSIAST. DUMPED PHYSICAL PAPERS AND NEWSPAPERS FOR IPHONE AND IPAD. CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT MY MACBOOK PRO. AND I PROUDLY OWN A APPLE.COM EMAIL ID, AND THE PRODUCT I WORK FOR GETS DEMOED EVERY YEAR AT THE COMPANY’S BIGGEST EVENT.
Born in India:
On December 25th, 22 years ago, I was in Thiruvallur, born in a town near Chennai, India. I went to school which is the main reason for what I do today.
Human Trait:
I don’t learn by hearing, rather I adhere to “Learn by doing”. There are not many instances where I could quote that I learnt something by hearing or reading, but my life has been filled with experiences from which I learnt.
Professional Courses:
I was put into a college near my town to study B.Tech in Information Technology. I did not do great things there for the college, but I did improve my career path with a lot of struggle, despite the restrictions of the college.
Kicked into cold water:
When the world was under recession and many young grads crying for their jobs, me and two of my very close friends started a small startup that would provide some job opportunities in future. But as I told, “Learn by doing” takes on a whole new meaning when you have no other option that doing.
Learned to swim:
After one intensive year in which I was able to thoroughly experience all the facets of traditional advertising and designing, it pulled me back into the distance. By the mid of July 2010, I was called in to work for one of the biggest service based company in India. Remember, it’s not because of the experience I gained in my startup, but for those I have done in my college. That’s why I called that part of my life as “Kicked into cold water”
Passion of your own boat:
Passion exists in every human and me being an abnormally passionate technology enthusiast, I wanted to share what I think and so is the very existence of this blog.
What I can?
The journey of my life has always been with short-term goals to achieve something or the other, definitely not by learning by book, but by Learn by Doing.
- Coding:
PHP, HTML 5, CSS 3, Groovy, Javascript
- Evangelizing:
Speaker of various technology sessions and conferences.
- Marketing:
Can market products (If they’re are really good) both offline and online.
- Blogging:
This is the place you are at. This was completely designed with all those coding techniques I know.
What I can not?
True to the motto: “You can not do everything”, I know that there are somethings I did not do. For all those cases, I’ve got some geek friends who can do what I can’t.
What I like?
Gadgets, Music and Movies are my muse and my lifeblood. Without them, I could not be.
