Sreeshma Purushothaman’s only dream while growing up was to drive a lorry. “I still remember my dad teaching my mother how to drive a lorry. I used to tell my family that when I reach class 5, I will also start driving. It was only later that I realised you need a license to drive,” recalls 24-year-old Sreeshma.
Having set her priorities early in life, Sreeshma set out to achieve her goals. And by the time she turned 18, she got her license for 2, 3 and 4 wheelers. “Many thought that I wanted my license because I am not good at studies. However, I proved them wrong when I passed class 10 and 12 with good marks. I went on to complete my BTech in Civil Engineering with good grades from Payyannur College of Engineering Technology,” says Sreeshma, adding that even though others used to demotivate her, her parents encouraged her love for motors.
