After Campion, during the six-month hiatus, I worked with my Dad learning the family business.  Unfortunately, all I learned was that the family business was not my cup of tea.  Wandering around one day, I bumped into Aloysius who was on his way to register at Elphinstone College.  I tagged along and registered too.  After one year there (in the Cafeteria of course!) I realized that I was in deep trouble.  So I crammed like crazy for the JEE and got in after a couple of tries. IIT was a fun time; luckily I did learn something there.  I also discovered my love for music and learned to play the guitar, which I have since forgotten.  After graduating, I worked in India for 2 years at CMC doing some really cool work.  Next stop was the USA, first Michigan and later to Boston where I currently reside.  I work in the Network Communication field, building routers and switches to pay the bills. Met my wife Vandana (ex Bombay) in Boston, got married in '89.  Ravi was the best man at our wedding.  Our two girls Anita and Shereen provide us with lots of joy and entertainment in our lives.
