Mr. Tech Meets Design Meets Business

About Me:

Brain of a techie, yet heart of an artist! Started out my career as an engineer and my acumen for design led me to pursue a masters degree in design which helped me get a functional layer to my design process. MBA seems as the ideal next step in my career as I look forward to being a product leader instead of just leading engineering/design teams.
