About

I wanted to organize this information but then again I realized that I was too random a person to have an organized description. This is the best  I could come up with for now. 

Professional: I am a performance engineer on the Windows Communication Foundation and Workflow Foundation team at Microsoft

Personal: I’m a mallu (a race of south Indian origin and nothing like what the link actually suggests) . My wife, Aditi, tries to keep me from becoming a total cynic. She continues in her perpetually confused identity crisis of being a pseudo Indian in all aspects of life and being a total Bhutanese in others and continues to be my voice of reason.

I actually come from Fort Cochin, which has been declared as a heritage site due to the old churches and many other buildings that still exist there. The place even has those famous Chinese fishing nets still standing. Even though I have not stayed there for more than a few years, my roots are there and I have some really fond memories of that place. My family loves the Santa Cruz Basilica there and that’s where I got my communion. Hope to visit there again someday with Aditi and also hope that place doesn’t change.

Education: Schooling was in Vidyodaya School, Cochin in India and did my Engineering in the notorious TKM College of Engineering. Personally I love my school due to some amazing teachers who I will write about some day and they helped me get some academic fame which never came of any use ever during the course of my work.

Interests: I am known to randomly develop interests but usually it ends in mediocre attempts in photography and playing the guitar. I think I’m more interested in the equipment than the actual ART.
