"Only when the human spirit is allowed to invent and create, can societies remain economically alive, dynamic, progressive and free."

Business is more than just analytics and quantitatives. It involves creativity, cognizance, aesthetics and the ability to make connections, understand perspectives, and motivate teams. A true business leader absorbs everything around him to generate value for the organization.

At work, I collaborate with businesses in diverse industries helping them become more independent by managing their information better and transforming their processes and technology. My ambition is to return to my motherland, India, and help local economies through small business development and education reform.

In life, I am an explorer of cities, a lover of history and a chronicler of the present times. I am addicted to literature. I unwind after a stressful week through writing fiction and poetry. Soccer and Manchester United have both been my life-long passions.

I believe that education is the strongest catalyst and the biggest enabler for progress. I spend my free time engaging with City Year and ASHA to seek grassroots education development in the US and in India.

Beyond everything else, I am just another soul trying to inject a little bit of myself into this universe.
