About Me | मेरे बारे में
A Mechanical graduate from BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus (Rajasthan, India) with a brief stint in Microsoft (Technical Sales). I have plans to pursue higher education in Robotics & data-driven Intelligence.

My current research work focuses on distributed computing algorithms and protocols. This is the same technology that powers Peer-to-Peer solutions (such as Tor, Torrent, Cryptocurrency, SETI@Home, etc.) and Cloud Computing. I have a working knowledge of secure programming using cryptographic libraries and language hacks.

I provide consultancy to non-profits in their digital transformation journey. More specifically, I help these organizations leverage commercial cloud solutions (non-profit SKUs) to -
 * 1) improve collaboration among volunteers (on-line & on-field)
 * 2) individualize communication with donors (& other subscribers)
 * 3) customize & personalize the experience of each stakeholder

As a hobby, I'm currently exploring permaculture.

Feedback
As I'm new to WikiEducator, I'll try documenting all the issues that I face while navigating the wiki. I'll revisit to solve these at a later stage.
 * Manual account creation - it takes around 2 weeks to get the account approved.
 * Initiatives categorization - projects should be group & sorted by update frequency
 * Changes can be tracked at Recent Changes
 * New User Pathway - there should be a To-Do checklist to help new users get comfortable with WikiEducator
 * A few QuickStart Guides
 * OERu realtime chat - requires another manual approval for account creation. There should be an identity sync between WikiEducator and OERu.
 * Web Chat - broken link
 * WikiEducator recently shifted from IRC to OERu realtime chat
