Event Manager/Art Director
No work is big or small, as long as it is done with a lot of passion and interest, and the motive is to entertain and engage people’- This is what Umesh Kumar believed 22 years back when he wore the cartoon mascot costume and distributed brochures and pamphlets outside shopping malls and parking lots for lucky draw contests as a part-time job during his college days.
Having come to Chennai from Vellore during school days for studies with his family , Umesh Kumar liked the idea of doing part- time jobs during college days and thereby experiencing a feeling of pride and empowerment with his earnings at such a young age
