Though for me the degrees mean very less but as for the world it means everything.....I am mentioning my qualifications.
I am a Masters In Computer Management in First Class from Pune University, College being the one of the best M.I.T. (Maharashtra Institute of Technology, Pune).
I have done my Graduation in Distinction from Pune University and schooling too in Distinction from Crescent High School (convent) Pune.
But for me my biggest qualification is what I have learnt from my parents, my friends, my inspirations, my culture, my upbringing......BINGO!!!!!

As far as achievements are considered I have a many at hand ....the result of my dedication and thrive to achieve the ultimate.....though this is just the beginning ( I hope so) !!
Right from my school days to my life as a Software & a Music professional (though today music is just a hobby)today I have always tried to be in the forefront and yeahhhhh...by God's grace and support of my family and friends have succeeded a bit !
Okay lets not waste time.....in my school days..believe me I was the whole and sole Musician in my entire school and rest is it....I achieved a lot of honor not to say that I too wrote some plays and scripts too !! Some of my Achievements are :

BEST OUTGOING STUDENT OF MIT School of Management award from the hands of the then Advisor of the Prime Minister of India.
BEST DRUMMER / PERCUSSIONIST award for consecutively 4 years at inter collegiate level.
Winner of the prestigious Firodiya Karandak for the year 1998.

Winner of the Music Competition GEET GAATA CHUL on ZEE TELEVISION.

Winner of the Worldwide Poetry Competition Organized by the International Library of Poetry, USA ( amongst 12 Lac entries world wide )

Appointed as the University Cultural Representative.

Played with leading musical groups and leading artists like Sudesh Bhosale.

With your blessings and good wishes I hope that on my way ahead I achieve a lot more....a lot !!

When it comes to speaking about my profession .... I am a bit confused whether to call me a Software Professional or a musician...though I have been successful in maintaining the balance between the both.
I am a Web Developer i.e. I am into Internet and Web application, E Commerce Development.
I have an IT experience of 2+ years at hand in ASP, VB 5/6, DHTML, HTML, Java, JavaScript,Oracle,SQL Server, D2K etc etc.

Speaking about Music.... I have been playing Professional Music for 7+ years. I am more a Percussionist though I even play melody instruments like Keyboards, Harmonium, Flute, Banjo, Harmonica (mouth organ), Guitar etc. But my major skillset is the rhythm (percussion) section.
I play the Drums, Tabla, Dholak, Dholaki, Pakhwaj, Bongo, Congas etc.etc.
Hey folks I sing a bit too ( though not a trained singer....sing sometimes) I like to sing RD Burman songs ( in his voice) and a sometimes Kishor Kumar songs too !!
But today music is just a hobby which I am nurturing along with my career.

If you talk about the future...(though I live for the present and don't care much about tomorrow) would like to die as a famous Music Composer and musician than a Software Professional ( one of those billions ...ha ha )!

As I have said .... Hobbies are my Babies !!! Yeah I mean it from the bottom of my heart !
I can put an equation " My life= (my hobbies) + (my people, my friends) "
Yeah ...I mean it as my hobbies are my life !!!
Music being my best hobby.....writing poems and literature follows it ..then comes philosophy...followed by keeping pets...astrology......sketching......making friends.....chatting....observing great men !!!....hey lots more folks...but it will be a blah blah blah.!!
