Hello, I am Anvesh 👋

A night owl and Nyctophile.

Nyctophile - (n.)Love of darkness or night; finding relaxation and comfort in the darkness.

I spend most of my days in my bedroom surfing the internet, playing video games, making art, learning how to code and playing the guitar.

Explore my bedroom using the mouse to drag and rotate in 3d space. While the room looks untidy, it is actually very magical when watching Harry Potter movies under those neon and warm lights.

I'm the one who can't seem to choose between engineering and art.

I completed my bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering. I've recently expanded my interests as a side project to check out several emerging technology fields like computer science and web development. I've seen some great opportunities out there, and I want to pursue my goal of obtaining new skills while learning more about the technology that I'm working with.

I also have skills in digital artistry, such as portraiture using Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop. Further, I finished a few digital portraitures of my beautiful friends. My interest in digital portrait painting started a year ago. But, it ended earlier than I expected because of the fear of not measuring up to the other's expectations.

I know mechanical engineers who have switched over to computer science.

Mechanical engineering is a difficult degree to get into and the one with the least hiring opportunities. Luckily, computer science is one of the fastest-growing degrees and has a lot of available jobs that can help provide a source of income in the future.

I have seen people around me get stuck in long-term career paths, working long hours for low-paid jobs. As a mechanical engineer, I acquired a wide range of technical and soft skills, including problem-solving, communication skills, and the ability to produce computer-aided drawings and designs. However, due to some changes in recent years, it may not be as lucrative for me.

Awe-Inspiring? Creative? Productive? Effervescent?

I had no clear idea of what I wanted to do in life. In addition, my bachelor's grades are too poor to continue study in computer science at a foreign university.

I'd been curious about programming for some time, and the CS50: Introduction to Computer Science, an entry-level course taught by David J. Malan had been on my radar for a while, and it was immensely helpful to me. I am currently seeking employment and intend to take a web development course.

I regularly update my portfolio, so it's a living document.
