Tell us about your profile pre ISB,  and recap your professional life after ISB including your career progression
While I was designing cars before ISB, now I am selling IT solutions to car makers. I  have traveled more than a dozen countries doing so!

Describe your fondest memory at ISB
Getting dunked, and dunking others..Straight and simple

How do you think ISB has contributed to your career growth?
This is  a question worthy of me writing a book. But at this stage,I would just say that it has given me a whole new perspective to approach  things.

If you have to sum up ISB in one word:
Salubrious

Word of advice for the current class?
Give those nerves a break. Live the moment. Rest will fall in place.

What was your favourite course/class at ISB and why?
Marketing Strategy hands down! Quite a few things going for it really: Simulation based so pure fun! Group dynamics driven, so really tested our abilities to sink the ship, and to top it all, it was pure fun watching our virtual company climbing from top, all the way down to bottom!!

Was there anyone during your time at ISB who acted as a mentor for you? Tell us a little about this relationship and why it was valuable.
My Quad-Mates and Pseudo-Quad mates- They were my true mentors/ philosophers

What are the areas that you can contribute in to ISB?
I have been part of various ISB initiatives, from interacting with potential ISB applicants, to the current class  

What do you enjoy most about your current career position?
Travel, lots of it.

What is the next new thing in the industry or vertical you are working in? Any trends that you can see?
There is  tremendous interest from clients worldwide to adopt solutions run from cloud, solutions making people mobile. Therefore,there is  sizable focus  in  these areas.
