| Introduction | Currently working as Director of Research & Development at HISP India and PhD fellow at NTNU. I'm also a visiting faculty at Patkar College, for teaching basic electronics and microprocessors to Elec. & CS students. Have been a tech enthusiast since my parents brought me my first computer some 15 years back. Wrote a flight simulation action game in BASIC when I was 12 yr old and since then have loved programming. Also have been assembling computers for the past 10 years and have opened every electronic equipment I have brought within the first 10 days. I love vedanta and understanding the human mind and beyond it. Have done Masters Degree in Bharatnatyam (Indian Classical Dance Form). If I wouldn't be a professional programmer/tech guy, then I would have been playing professional soccer. |
