“For them who hire Karan Sharma shall achieve eternal happiness and a stress free work environment� - Gautama Buddha
Since an early age, I wanted to be an architect, and through the years of education and experiences, this goal remained. Every hobby, interest, skill acquired over the years has given me a broader insight into architecture as a profession. Bachelors in Architecture was the gateway for me to the visible yet hidden aspects of architecture which had always been present in front of my eyes. In person, you can find me smiling and observing the world, always up for conversations about anything which stimulates brain cells.
