Graduation in Electronics & Communications Engineering

Born and brought up in the steel township of Rourkela, I went onto do my engineering from NIT Jalandhar.

After passing out had my first corporate flavour at Wipro Technologies, Bangalore. Got promoted to the post of Senior Software Engineer faster than normal.

The urge of getting into managerial roles led me to pursue Post Graduation.[/ut_icon_tab][/ut_icon_tabs]
