Angad Singh’s Summary
I have graduated from JIIT University, Noida after doing a Bachelors of Technology in Information Technology from years 2005 through 2009. I have been passionate about computing from a very early age. My niche is my long experience in web development. During my school years, I have worked as a freelance web developer for around 4 years, working on many web design and programming projects involving complex client-side and server-side scripting, server administration and management of large community websites. During college, I have been working on core research projects revolving around Computer Vision and Virtual Reality, both of which deeply interest me. I have also worked a lot on Drupal-based portals, Robotics projects, minor Networking projects and plugins for the Netbeans IDE. I am a strong believer of community development, the spirit of participation and I am a patron of Free and Open Source Software. I have been involved in fostering and managing student clubs at campus revolving around technological interests and have been deeply engaged in evangelizing open source software through tech talks, labs and other community events. I am a prolific blogger, extreme web 2.0 enthusiast, and I like to constantly keep myself updated about the latest technology news.
