A software engineer who writes with both hands

Tiruchirapalli, July 14: She is a software engineer with a difference. While she writes with her right hand, her left hand simultaneously generates mirror images of those words.

Possessing an ability to effortlessly write with both her hands, R Vaishnavi can write English, Tamil, Hindi and Sanskrit.

Vaishnavi, who had completed her B E in computer science, writes with her right hand as most people do, but at the same time she can generate mirror images of those words with her left hand.

Vaishnavi was a ‘leftie’ in her school days, but started using her right hand on the insistence of her teachers.

Practice in between her studies and exams over the years developed her speed. Her letters also showed a marked improvement.

While Vaishnavi writes with speed using her right hand, it is a little slower when she attempts it with the left.
