I'm just an ecclectic oddball, with a thousand interests. As a geek, I have a deep interest in the reasons for why things are done a certain way in each discpline. I find the most incredible parallels across food, coffee, bbq, business and faith. Everything really is connected. I am a South Indian by ethnicity but have lived in various places overseas for much of my life. Some of those include the US, UK, New Zealand, Malaysia and Singapore. My palate has been developed on my travels throughout Asia, so I tend to be a bit adventurous. I've spent most of my career in Banking, mostly in Risk Management. I started my career in Technology, moving to Operational Risk, and my journey has encompassed almost every single non financial risk discpline at this point. I am also a once failed entrepreneur trying to give it a second go. I absolutely focus on innovation as I think there are always better ways to do things, and a good solution can positively impact all participants. That said, life is always a journey, it is best to slow down and take time to smell the roses along the way :).
