What is the definition of being fashionable for you?

The definition of being fashionable for me is when you get peer appreciation for your fashion quotient and are recognized for your attire. If somebody comes to you and says that you have a great fashion sense, I believe then you are fashionable and maybe you have thoughts about being fashionable but nobody is telling you, then I don’t think you are fashionable.

Five “must have’s” that you cannot live without?

Undoubtedly my phone, I know it sounds boring but yes MIS (Management Information System) Data, time with family, Quarterly Holiday, compassion to build a healthy organization.

What do you do for fun when you are not working?
