Prathyush Yalavarthi
Bentonville, Arkansas
I have a background in Engineering and experience as a consultant and a brief attempt at a startup. I have diverse set of interests and skills, and I enjoy being able to juggle multiple projects in a dynamic and fast-paced environment.
I like to explore new avenues for existing technologies, and I am interested in how different groups in an organizations can collaborate to best use the available resources and exceed their goals.
Although I predominantly handle technical facets of a project, I have experience evaluating functional packages, creating and pitching new proposals and mentoring teams. I have also worked with clients from varied backgrounds from hourly store associate to directors and VP’s across Americas, Europe and China.
Despite being surrounded by technology, I like things old school. I enjoy reading when free, I do prefer a big heavy book to an IPad or nook. Fiction helped nurture my interest but now I am drawn to history, pyschology, philosophy and science. Currently reading Wars of the World, an interesting insight into the ways of the world I must say.
I also have a penchant for languages. I have learned to converse in all the tongues my colleagues speak and am currently exploring Spanish. I need to spend some more time in pursuit for it this year.
My experience is all in IT services consulting and am interested in learning about package and product management. If you work in any of those spaces, I would love to connect with you! And on another note, I am also interested in opportunities to collaborate on unique and adventurous projects.
