"After a professional course in Public Relations - when everyone was running towards conventional streams of media - I stumbled upon Windchimes Communications.

This ace-graphic designer believes in being a Maven so much so that even this snippet of her has her 'influence' on it!

"Windchimes introduced me to online brand building, and a friendly work atmosphere. What I like is the fact that I can wear causal on week days.

This is a classic example of learning while having fun. Ok, now, that I have been asked to be honest, I feel like its Siberia in here with the lowered AC temperatures."
