About Me

I have several years of experience in project management and documentation related domains. My expertise includes project management, technical writing, and Learning Solutions/Instructional Design (eLearning, Classroom, Synchronous Learning). I also enjoy open source technology.

My personal experiences have led me to some rather exotic locations. Currently, I reside in New Delhi. I have also traveled to England, Chicago, Florida, Dubai, and Singapore. In Africa, I have stayed/visited Zambia, Botswana, South Africa, Swaziland, Lesotho, Zimbabwe, Kenya, and Mauritius. As you can see, I do have substantial experience living in the developing worlds. I also keenly participate in social activities for the betterment of society.
