My best experience at CCAC has been witnessing the growth of student interest in my classroom. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact that educators can have on their students' lives and the importance of creating a supportive and engaging learning environment.

Computer Fundamentals in IT—For me, teaching goes beyond the traditional role of imparting knowledge; it is a journey of deep exploration and continuous learning. One of the most profound aspects of teaching, in my opinion, is the opportunity it provides for learning from a deeper perspective. When I step into the classroom, I am not only focused on increasing the knowledge base of my students but also on gaining new insights and understanding the subject matter from a fresh perspective.

One thing that people may not know about me is that I have a talent for cooking Indian Vegetarian cuisine.
