I'm an engineer, a product visionary, and a technology investor. Raised in a family of gifted and brilliant academicians in South India, I earned a Masters in Computer Science from Stanford University after a Bachelors in Computer Science Engineering from Bharathiar University, India. I started my first company when I was 21 years old as a graduate student, raising venture money with a couple of my entrepreneurial friends, and exited the company by sale. I have since started two more product companies with successful exits. I have built my career over the last couple of decades in software engineering, product marketing, and product management in companies of varied sizes.
