I was born and raised in India where I completed my Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science and Engineering. After this I wanted to pursue my Masters Degree and so I came to UTEP.  When I think of UTEP, it brings back fond memories that I can never forget. I still remember that pleasant evening when I walked into the campus which was beautifully lit at twilight and I thought to myself "What I choose to do here is going to shape my future".  As a matter of fact, it sure sculpted my career and today I am glad that I chose to go to UTEP where I focused on what I came there for, "Education". El Paso is a very friendly place and no matter which culture you come from, people there will make you feel welcome. I was blessed by campus ministries (Campus Crusade for Christ and others) who treated me like their own and there I found true friends who were a constant source of encouragement for me. I am especially grateful to the Indian Students Association (ISA) that made my transition to USA an absolutely smooth one.

I am truly thankful to Dr. Patricia Teller for the outstanding education that she offered me while I was her student at UTEP (1997 to 1999).  I had the privilege to work as a Graduate Research Assistant for Dr. Teller in the SSEAL lab where I was given the opportunity to do world-class research. My Master's project was a challenging one on Modeling, Simulation and Analysis of large-scale systems. What I learned, I learned it well and I strive to perfect it and so the cycle goes on as I learn more.

         I joined Intel (Portland, OR) in September 1999 as a Software Engineer. It’s the end of year 2004 now, a little over 5 years since I graduated with my Masters Degree in Computer Science from UTEP and I can confidently say that it has been a road to success and I continue to pursue that path.  Last year I moved into Intel's premier labs as a Senior Engineer and I have the privilege of working with highly talented scientists and together we develop state-of-the-art simulation tools and continue to invent methodologies that are at the core of Intel’s R&D. Currently I am pioneering an effort towards effective simulation of multi-core and multi-threaded systems. This year has been wonderful and I am even more excited about the future. In short, the education at UTEP has come a long way. I forever remain grateful to my professors Dr. Teller and Dr. Gates who played a vital role in my education and also all other professors whose classes helped me build a solid foundation for my career.

         I am proud to be a UTEP CS Alumnus.
