I am a hard-core techno geek.

I am always:

· Keen on researching and experimenting with new technologies
· Seen active in the playgrounds such as Programming languages, Hardware, Mobile phones, Networking and the Internet

I began my vocation as a Programmer, moved up as Database Designer, Systems Analyst, Lead Architect.

During this phase, I crafted and lead several commercial applications using PHP with MySQL community server or Oracle as the data store.

Currently, I am a lead Technical Author in a software development house called Cybersol Technologies Pvt. Ltd.

As a technical writer, my primary role is to make the Project leads and Team leads collectively aware of the scope of each commercial application that is being developed, by crafting the High-level and Low-level design documents.

I closely monitor the life cycle of every commercial application or business process being carried out to ensure the best documentation as the final outcome.

I also consult with several software houses in Mumbai, India, to help them design and manage database applications.

In addition to documentation, I heavily use and experiment with Open source technologies such as Joomla, PHP, MySQL, Apache and Linux.

My next most rewarding time is spent in WRITING books. Till date, I have authored and co-authored more than 10 technical books which are widely referred across the globe. These books focus on a wide variety of topics such as Oracle, PHP, MySQL, Linux, Visual Basic .NET, Java Server Programming, Ajax, and so on.
