Introducing Me!

I am Prateek! Business Intelligence Analyst by profession, Amateur photographer, and a Fitness Enthusiast. This is my first day on steemit and I am really happy to be a part of this growing community.

I am 26 years old, born and bought up in Indore, India. I did my Masters in MS-MIS and currently staying in Boston Area. So far life has been exciting and now I am trying to figure out what's Next in life for me. I like reading articles related to Photography and Fitness. Recently I came across cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ether, and from there I learned about Steem. I tend to learn more about cryptoworld using steemit and also use it as a platform to share my work with the community

There are things you do for yourself and some you do for a living. Well, for a living I work as a Business Intelligence Analyst in a tech firm located in Cambridge, MA. My usual work involves analyzing and visualizing data for making better business decisions. I have a total work experience of Two and half years in the field of I.T and I have a long way to go.

Talking about photography, I always loved to click pictures, started with mobile phones 3.2M.P and with the technology advancements, improved quality of camera and lenses now I am a proud owner of Sony Alpha 6000 (Mirrorless Camera). So far it had been a learning experience and I have seen improvement in my skills. Here are a few of my favorite pics

Coming in my mid-twenties I realized the importance of Health and with my new year resolution for 2017 I decided to do at least something that will help me stay fit (It may be doing squats, pushups or just running). I started with simple push-ups every day and as I started feeling my gains I decided to work out at my office gym. I made good gym buddies and from that stage working out has been an addiction. Starting at a weight of 54Kg (119 Pounds) with a lean muscle gain of 6Kg (13 Pounds) now I am 60Kg (132 Pounds). This has been possible not only because of hard work at the gym but also a healthy diet plan.

My recent transformation. Sorry, don't have a pre-transformation pic.

Apart from photography and fitness, I also like spending time in helping and guiding people in preparing for Job applications, interviews, and other career related stuff. I believe education had a great impact in my life and now it's my turn for pay back.
I would like to end my introduction here and would like to connect with everyone here and get to know them, learn from them.

Regards
Prateek
