CEO at Cogzidel Technologies
India
Born in Chennai(India), I was brought in a typical middle class south indian family. My parents always wanted me to be good in my academics & find out a good job, but I was neither good in studies nor I was interested in taking a job. I take pride in starting many small ventures along with Aravind who happens to be my best pal & co-founder of most of my ventures.
