Yatin Choudhary

This is Yatin Choudhary. You can find me over at S-114 in Jawahar Bhawan, right on the IIT Roorkee campus. It’s a busy spot, as you can imagine with all the students and faculty constantly moving around. I’ve been set up here for a while now. The room isn't huge, but it fits everything I need to get the job done. Living and working in Roorkee has its own rhythm. The campus life stays active even late into the night. My space is usually cluttered with papers and a few coffee mugs because I spend a lot of time sitting here. It’s not the kind of place that looks like a magazine photo. Things are real and a bit messy. I don’t use a lot of fancy equipment or have a team of people answering phones. Usually, it is just me. If I am not at the desk, I might be grabbing a quick bite nearby. I like being part of this academic environment even if what I do is more hands-on and practical. Dealing with the day-to-day stuff keeps me busy enough. People know they can just drop by and see if I’m in. We don't have formal appointments most of the time. It is a straightforward way of doing things. Sometimes the internet acts up or it gets a bit noisy in the halls, but we make it work regardless of the distractions around us.
