Greetings, folks! I'm Arman David, your friendly neighborhood indie movie protagonist—born and bred in Chandigarh, India, proudly answering to he/him pronouns. Picture me as that slightly annoying lead character with a penchant for juggling more hats than a hat store in a hurricane. From donning various roles in theatrical productions, including historical epics, monologues, and even musicals, to bringing home the bacon in oratory showdowns like debates and speeches back in my uni days, I've done it all. In the professional arena, I've dabbled in both the thrilling worlds of Accounting and Human Resources Management. Currently, I'm specializing in the latter at Ascenda. My grand dream? To become the ultimate global nomad, hopping from country to country like a linguistic kangaroo. Oh, and let's not forget Sylvia Plath's iconic words: "I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am." Can't wait to mingle with you all!
