An engineer by training, a researcher by desire, a leader by responsibility and a lifelong believer in technology. Even today when I spend most of my time managing people, strategizing, looking at revenue and expenses, I hunt time to run some servers, administer applications and write software. I started using the Internet using dial-up on shell through VSNL student support scheme and can honestly say that I have used BBSes on 9.6k baud modems.I have spent a significant chunk of my career in research and now an equal amout in CXO positions. I look forward to seeing so many amazing technologies make a huge impact on student learning and consequently the world.
