KYCEan Reloaded : Know Your CEan - Zaveri

Finally, the much-awaited KYCEan interviews are back!
I am happy to see the excitement in you guys about the KYCEan series.
I am glad to introduce you to my first interviewee Zaveri, a mechanical evangelist. He is a 2013 passed out from B.S.A university (B.Tech mechanical engineering). Presently working as an entrepreneur, Zaveri has the undying zeal to tinker with gadgets and fix machines. His contribution to CE has been remarkable and he has always helped CEans with his thoughtful remarks and suggestions.

Happy reading guys πŸ˜€


Karishma : Give a brief introduction about yourself.

Zaveri : I am Zaveri and am a great lover of machines, especially when it happens to be mechanical. I passed out of college in 2013 and at presently taking care of my family business.


Karishma : Where did you hear about CE and what provoked you to join the community?

Zaveri : As usual I bumped across it through google.com when I was searching for the design procedure for flanged couplings in my 5th sem. Since then I have been hooked to this site.


Karishma : How did you develop a great love for machines?

Zaveri: This love for machines was since childhood. And it kind of increased during college days. The way i see it, designing and building a machine is just the grown-ups version of playing with the "mechanix".


Karishma : What do you like most about yourself?

Zaveri : W
ell the one thing I like is that I am quite different from the other guys, for example I love being lonely. I am not crazy for girls.I love sitting alone and brooding about some kind of innovation.


Karishma : If your life was a movie, what would be its title?

Zaveri :
"The life of an unlucky engineer".


Karishma : What impact do you want to leave in the world?

Zaveri : Well I am not too sure about it. But I want to show that nothing is impossible. With a little effort even the laws of thermodynamics can be violated.


Karishma : Γ’€œSometimes I feel these organized sectors overdo it in the name of being organizedΓ’€, this was your statement in one of the CE discussions. Can you cite some examples which made you form this opinion.

Zaveri : This particular statement I had stated in a thread started by #-Link-Snipped-#. I had posted it to comment over a video which showed some high-end corporates behaving childishly.

Once my dad, rather sarcastically and angrily stated "Thanks to the illiterates and amateurs that the world is functioning today. The knowledge of the intellectuals and the smart ones are only limited to paper". He meant to say that people who do not have much knowledge but believe in work tend to do things properly by means of trial and error, whereas the ones who have it get so overconfident and get carried away by it that they make a complete mess out of matters.


Karishma : If you had 24 hours to live, who would you be with 23 hours from now?

Zaveri :
My family ofcourse and some of my best friends.


Karishma : What has been the greatest adventure of your life?
Zaveri :
As such there have been many such small adventures and I can't say which one was greater.
The best one was during the first year in college. The authorities passed a rule that the students cannot leave the campus during class hours and the security guards were doing their job excellently.So once myself and three of my friends desperately wanted to leave the campus, and we scaled a 12 foot compound wall to escape, and we were quite successful.


Karishma : What bad habits do you want to break?

Zaveri : the bad habit which I want to break of is to stop being lazy.


Karishma : What does success mean to you?

Zaveri: It simply means to achieve what you were struggling to obtain for a very long time in your life.


Karishma : Where do you see yourself in one year? five years? and ten years?

Zaveri :
One year from now onwards I just see myself where I am right now today.

Five years from then, I see myself as an industrialist.

Ten years from now I see myself at least in the tail ends of the Forbes list of World's Richest Men.



Karishma : If given a chance, would you like to quit your present family business and go for some core engineering job ?

Zaveri :
I am fully settled in my family business and I do not think I would go for a job now.


Karishma : The best days of my childhood were spent playing with "mechanix" a steel construction kit made by Zephyr. This kit was my mini university and it sparked of in me a passion for engineering.Γ’€ These are again some of your words. What were your other interests as a child?

Zaveri :
My other interests then were cycling, and today this interest has evolved into biking.
I loved playing Pokémon games. The only reason this game interested me was, because this game was closely related to biology.

Karishma : Name 3 CEans you would want to meet in person over a cup of coffee.
Zaveri :

Karishma : What will be your message to fellow CEans?

Zaveri :
Education is the best gift your parents could give you. Enjoy it !!!.

    Well the one thing I like is that I am quite different from the other guys, for example I love being lonely. I am not crazy for girls. I love sitting alone and brooding about some kind of innovation.
    I believe some mechanical engineers reading this would love to copy that answer and spurt it out the next time someone asks that question. 😁

    And, Forbes list of World's Richest Men.

    Ok, here's another question -

    What family business do you work in? Is it related to mechanical industry or some other? πŸ˜€ It would be great to know what CEans are up to when they are not logged in to CE.

    Well you see, i always believe in trying out different things. there were not many discussions here related to fans, (which happen to be humble, and at the same time useful machines), so i started them.
