A gentleman picked up my card at a Balloon Twisting event last weekend. He sent me an email asking about my background and how I got to be a Balloon Artist. He was curious about how someone gets to work at a job doing what they love.
After I wrote him the response, it occurred to me that the same will be a good way to use as an introduction to you, my readers.

I was born in Nizamabad, AP India and my family moved to Pakistan in 1965. I migrated to USA in 1974 and have lived here since.
I dropped out of college after three semester to pursue Restaurant Management. I enjoyed working in restaurants and have worked in restaurants – on and off - for 35 years.
When I was not working in restaurants I tried doing various things, including but not limited to the following:
Internet Marketing – still learning and enjoying
In addition,
As you can see I love doing different things and it was this curiosity, and the love for children that brought me to Balloon Twisting. I do not consider it a job. It is a fun activity that pays dividends both financial and otherwise. I will continue entertaining children with my Balloon Art even after it is no longer necessary for me to use it as an income generating activity, which I hope will be sooner than later.

So there you have it. A long winded answer to a simple question.
