My journey at AtkinsRéalis 

Hi, I'm Sarang, a graduate engineer at AtkinsRealis. I've been there for two years, and I've been supported in doing my professional best while continuing to explore my biggest passion outside of work—food. 

When I say cooking is my passion, it feels like a second calling. My culinary journey has been self-taught, nurtured by the guidance of my mother and aunt. To deepen my love for cooking, I immersed myself fully in its world, refining my skills and exploring new techniques. I'm proud to say it led me to participate in India's top-level cooking competition.
