After living in Windsor for 3 years, and in North America for 14, Shriaa is excited to learn and grow in her new role with WEtech Alliance.

Q: Describe yourself in five words.

A: Passionate, Caring, Fighter, Pet-Mom, Direct

Q: Are you more of a hunter or a gatherer?

A: Gatherer.

Q: What would the title of your autobiography be called?

A: It would be called “Dil Toh Pagal Hai.” In hindi, that means my heart is crazy. I picked this title because my personal past can be a lesson in managing relationships in a strict South Asian household while growing up in America.

Q: If you could be any animal in the world, what animal would you be and why?

A: I would be an Elephant because they are high in emotional intelligence, funny, and can scare anyone.

Q: What’s your favourite ’90s jam?

A: Everybody – Backstreet Boys

Q: What would your pet say about you if we asked for a reference?

A: My guinea pigs would say that their mom annoys them by singing too much to them.

Q: You’re a new addition to the crayon box. What color would you be and why?

A: I would be Pastel Blue because its a color that is makes you feel peaceful when you look at it and that is how I want people to feel when they interact with me. It will bring balance to the bold colors in the crayon box.

Q: What’s the strangest thing you’ve ever eaten?

A: Ice-cream, Fries, and Mayonnaise!

Q: What do you work toward in your free time?

A: I love cooking so whenever I have extra time, I work on improving recipes, and inventing new ones. If there is a special occasion coming up, I like making desserts for that occasion, and focus on improving my technique.

Image module

Q: What were you like in high school?

A: I was A-B student depending on the subject. I spent time exploring my interests, and discovered event planning. I was on my High School Varsity Bowling Team, and won a few awards. I was a part of the National Honor Society, and Orchestra. I had a small group of friends.

Q: Favourite superhero?

A: Iron-Man.

Q: What Friends character do you most identify with?

A: I think I am combination of Monica, and Rachel, but higher percentage Monica.

Q: What accomplishment are you most proud of?

A: In my culture and family, it is rare for a girl to move away from her parents house. While it is not something others in my family consider an accomplishment, I would, as I moved out of my home and established myself in another country.

Image module

Q: Who would play you in a movie?

A: Mindy Kaling. 

Q: What is your best feature?

A: I think in the physical sense, I think my hair is my best feature. In the non-physical sense, I like that whenever someone comes over to my house, they can feel at home.

Q: Have you ever tried to do something and you knew that you were going to be really bad at it, but you did it anyway?

A: I am not a good painter, yet I do it anyway because I like how peaceful I feel during it.

Q: You’re on death row. What’s your last meal?

A: My grandmother’s Daal and Rice.

Image module

Q: What is one thing you’re most excited for in joining the WEtech Alliance team?

A: I am excited to plan events, especially if and when we do Nerd Olympics again.

Editor’s note: Nerd Olympics will definitely be coming back as soon as it’s safe to do so!
