Hi All,

First of all i would like to thank poonam.hingankar14for tagging me in her BIF Blog It Forward - Poonam Hingankar :smile: . You can read more about this initiative over here Blog It Forward Community Challenge . Special thanks to moshe.navehfor starting this great initiative. Till now it has been amazing reading about different sets of people from all around the world because of this challenge :smile: . Trying a small effort from my side too, to introduce myself to the SCN world.

My Introduction

Frankly I will say that the most dreadful question according to me anyone can ask you is "Introduce yourself" :wink: , but i will try here to introduce myself.

My name is Harshada Deshpande. I am born and brought up in the 'Orange City' i.e Nagpur, Maharashtra :smile:   . It is located at the geographical centre of India :grin: . I did my schooling from Nagpur itself after which i moved to Mumbai to complete my graduation. Thanks to the campus placements i got placed in 'Infosys',  the dream company of every fresher :grin: . In Infosys training, we were trained in SAP ABAP module, where I was first introduced to the SAP world and I will say I am still trying to take a hold in this vast technology. Having trained in ABAP module i was hoping to get a project in the same technology, but instead got a project in SAP EP and Web Dynpro JAVA :wink: . So it was time again to learn a new technology.  I am thankful to my team for helping me in learning it. :smile:

I have just started to explore the technology. Hope i am successful in gaining expertise in it
