Q2.  Tell us a bit more about yourself.
Srikant Dwivedi: Well, I belong to Uttar Pradesh. I graduated from the University of Delhi with a bachelor’s degree in commerce and currently pursuing my master’s degree in business administration. I work as a training manager at the Le Meridien Hotel in Gurugram. I would describe myself as an optimistic person. I always try to find something positive in every bad or negative situation I come across. I take every challenge as an opportunity to discover something new and every failure as a new lesson. I am an avid traveller and like to explore new places. On contrary, I have a nerdy side as well, at times I like to sit alone in my room and read novels.
