Q: What accomplishment are you most proud of?
A: During my stint at 3M, I designed a stackable POP tray in ArtiosCAD which was employed for six different products. This made me proud. In addition, having a start-up of my own even before I did my engineering is something I’m very proud of.
Q: Would you rather be like Einstein who is good with numbers, or Shakespeare who is good with words? Why?
A: Einstein, because he was not only witty and good with numbers, but he also had an amazing sense of humour.
Q: What is one packaging trend that you hate that everyone else loves?
A: Edible packaging. I’m just not comfortable with the idea.
Q: In your opinion, what’s the best film about print you have ever seen?
A: Snowden. It is an example of how print has allowed quick flow of information.
Q: Describe your dream visit to a factory?
A: A factory driven by 100% renewable and eco-friendly energy sources. The one where there isn’t a stream of toxic waste flowing and meeting a river or sea somewhere.
Q: What would be your dream job?
A: A job that involves exploring places, cuisines, history and stories.
Q: One thing that is on your bucket list
A: Travelling to all the underrated places around the world.
Q: What’s the most interesting thing you’ve read or seen recently?
A: I have recently read about toothpaste tablets that can be stored in plastic containers which are not single use.
