Functional
summary

I am a keen experimenter. I have pretty much devoted my time at

undergraduate school to try bits and pieces of everything I could lay my
hands upon to find what I really enjoy doing.
Presently all my energy is directed towards making an impact with my
start up Familiarfuels (www.familiarfuels.com). This is fundamentally
social entrepreneurial venture which aims at providing rural energy
solutions using renewable sources of energy and primarily Bio diesel.
Other members of this project are graduates of Stanford University and
Business School graduates whom I had met at Stanford University
where I had been to attend a Entrepreneurship Summit(April 2006)
organized by ASES(Asia Pacific Student Entrepreneurship Society) as
one of the student Delegates from India.
In the summers of 2006 I had carried out research work on Nanofibres at
Deakin University, Australia as a Intern.
