About the Blog

   As a technology leader, when I look to learn new technologies and search for a basic tutorial on any technology, usually there is a basic Hello World program. I am sure most of the software developers face the same situation as me. It is not possible to use a Hello World program in our work environments. Hence I came up with this blog to write applications/programs that can be used as a base to build upon and start using them in our work environments.

About Me

   I am a Technology Leader with more than 13 Years experience in software project management and web development with primary focus on Java and related technologies. I have worked in all kinds of organisations in my career; product based, startups and service based. I have worked on small and large mission critical applications in multiple domains. I look up to technology as an enabler to achieve functionalities that can be applied in all forms of life today.
