Struggles aside, Vijay Mohan loves to have fun. A lover of science fiction, boxing, reading and dogs, Vijay Mohan combines his professionalism with a big, toothy smile.

Q&A with Vijay
What is unique that's not in your bio?
I'm certified to be an apprentice Locksmith in the province of Ontario. Looking for an apprentice, anyone?
What's your favorite accomplishment?
I once got knocked out during a sparring session at my local boxing gym. It might not seem like an accomplishment, but the childhood version of me never would have imagined I'd have the courage to step in a ring and trade punches with someone.
How do you define cool?
If something is "cool", it is so interesting that I would consider not only copying it, but integrating it into who I am.
What is your secret to uncovering trends?
The first step is to recognize that the Internet is enormous, and that trends are out there. To look past what everyone else is already talking about, look for the people and things that are struggling to get Internet attention, and give them some consideration. Are they cool? Are they worth writing about? You'll find the answer is most often 'yes'.
Predict something awesome for 2020?
We're going to see amazing innovations for paraplegics, what with the fancy exoskeleton technology on the horizon.
