About Me
my History
I am a non-caffeine-addicted developer, MSc in Video Game Development working as Engineering Manager at Gameskraft, Bangalore India. My past industry experience of around ten years majorly incorporates native Android, native iOS, Web (React and React Native), Backend (Java, Node JS and TS) and Game Development (Unity and Unreal Engine) targeting mobile and PlayStation. I have experience with both AWS and GCP. I am passionate about gaming and animations.
I have a special interest in playing and developing video games. Counter-Strike: condition 1.6 is still at the top of my favourite games list. Apart from video games, I love swimming and trekking. I won 1 gold and 4 silver medals in swimming at the KVS national level and 12 gold medals at the regional level and was awarded by the district collector for the same on 26th Jan 2006. I even attended 5 national-level trekking camps including Trek on frozen river (Chadar Trek - 72 Kms) in different regions of the Himalayan range.
My life is extremely exciting with adventurous sports. I am an SSI-certified open water scuba diver with multiple dives logged in my dive book for more than 40 mins each. I am also an aspirant for Private Pilot License and will be flying an aircraft up to a 1500 Kgs soon. I drove the bike on the world's highest motorable road and made a bike trip to 'Leh, Kashmir India' multiple times. I jumped from a height of 83 and 55 meters static platforms with just a rope tied to my legs, Bungee jump. I jumped from a height of approx 10,000 ft from a Cessna 172 plane with just a parachute on my back, Solo Sky diving.

Backing Field in Kotlin
What is Backing Field ?
Backing field is an autogenerated field for any property which can only be used inside the accessors(getter or setter) and will be present only if it uses the default implementation of at least one of the accessors, or if a custom accessor references it through the field identifier. This backing field is used to avoid the recursive call of an accessor which ultimately prevents the StackOverflowError.
