"Thus at the flaming forge of life
Our fortunes must be wrought;
Thus on its sounding anvil shaped
Each burning deed and thought ~" Longfellow

I graduated with a Masters Degree in Computer Science from Stanford University (2004) and a Bachelor of Technology, in Information Technology from the Univesity of Madras (2002), India. My primary interest while at school were algorithms for large data sets, Data visualization and analytics and Recovery-oriented computing and Software reliability. Also being passionate about Enterpreuership and Social Movements, took an interest in the Business Association of Stanford Engineering Students (BASES).

I am also very involved with sustainable environmental and education ideas, product design and marketing for infectious action.I have also enjoyed being a part of various nature conservation organizations over the years like the Madras Naturalist Society (MNS), Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS), World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the Jersey Wildlife Preservation Trust (JWPT). In addition, I love to travel, play sports, paint/photograph, play percussion instruments and research ancient Sanksrit oral traditions. Most of all, I really enjoy enlightening discussions and engaging with people with diverse ideas. So if you have feedback, philosophical debates or lively ideas, you would like to share, I would love to hear from you here
