From Hindupedia, the Hindu Encyclopedia

I grew up in Chandigarh, India. After completing my bachelors and masters studies in Engineering I came to the USA in 2000. In the US I went to graduate school at MIT Sloan school of management and have worked in the pharmaceutical industry for the last several years. As a Hindu, I grew up with the mantra of respecting all faiths. We used to go to Mosques, Gurudwaras and Church without ever thinking of one religion as better than another. However, my recent discovery of the negative literature published against Hindus has motivated me to learn more details of the Gita, Upanishads and the vedic culture to present them in a positive light to the world. I an well versed in Hindi, Punjabi and English. In addition I learnt Sanskrit in high school and I read in Sanskrit whenever available.
