Artifacts

 

This is a picture of me with T.M Krishna. T.M Krishna is a very renowned Carnatic music artist and I have grown up listening to his music. He has definitely played a huge role in the way I view music and perform it. Throughout my life, Carnatic music has been something that travelled and grown with me. I started learning when I was 5 years old and still continue to learn and perform. It has played a huge role in who I am as a person today. It is an art that demands discipline and adherence to tradition, but also encourages openness to other influences. I aspire to be a professional Carnatic vocalist in the future. Carnatic music is something that sets the foundation for other music I can sing and gives me a strong technical base which means that I can learn to sing many other different types of music with training in Carnatic music.

About Me

 

Hello! My name is Karuna Suresh and I am currently a freshman pursuing a degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering. I have always been fascinated by all my subjects in some way or another, and I came to realize that engineering is not solely based on math and science. A little bit of every discipline is incorporated in engineering. Apart from being interested in engineering, I am also trained in Indian Classical music which is my biggest passion. I am a part of OSU Dhadkan, which is the South Asian Acappella team at OSU. In the future I want to be able to use my knowledge in engineering to further my passion in music.

 

Learner: I genuinely love learning for the sole purpose of expanding my knowledge and I surround myself with people who are more knowledgable that me to learn from them.

Arranger: I tend to have a knack for assigning tasks to people based on their special unique skills. And I do not appreciate being ordered around because when I ask someone to do something, I say it with respect and I expect the same.

Individualization: I truly believe that every single person is unique and has their own strengths and I use these strengths to benefit the common goal in a group setting.

Achiever: I enjoy always being busy and having something to do and feel that not doing anything is a waste of valuable time.

Belief: I have been told that I have a strong moral compass and everything I do in my life is driven by my set of beliefs.
