I am a graduate in Telecommunication Networks from Northeastern University. I have a growing interest in Data Networking, Cloud Computing, Infrastructure Automation, Linux, Network Security, Wireless Communications, and Telecommunications. I have spent past 12+ years researching, studying, and working with Networking, Telecommunications, Virtualization, and Automation.

Since childhood, I am passionate about computer networks and communications. This passion carried me through my education at Rajasthan Technical University, and I did my under graduation in Electronics and Communications. During my undergrad, I developed a keen understanding of Wireless Communication, Cloud Computing, and Antennas that drove me to a master's degree in Digital Communications. There, I found ample resources to enrich my learnings. I studied many new things and implemented them practically with the same fascination that drove me as a kid. I continued my journey with MS in Telecommunication Networks from Northeastern University found numerous opportunities to work on industrial Networks.

As a Telecommunication Network engineer, My technical expertise includes strong fundamentals of Linux, and Unix operating systems, with proficiency in Python programming language. I have advanced knowledge of Networking Protocols like BGP, MPLS, OSPF, IPsec, HSRP, STP, VLAN, HTTP/HTTPS, DNS, DHCP, UDP, TCP/IP and have good understanding of automation tools like CFEngine, Puppet, Chef, Ansible, Netmiko, Paramiko, CloudFormation, etc. and security aspects of a network like Encryption (Symmetric and Asymmetric), Firewalls, Reconnaissance, SSH, DNSsec, IPsec etc.

My experience as a System Development Engineer in Amazon, Graduate Teaching Assistant in Data Networking and Internet Protocol Architecture courses and research assistant in wireless communication helped me to explore the different domains of Automation, Virtualization, Networking, Telecommunication, and security of communication networks. My leadership quality, which is well balanced with my team working skills helps me in handling problems and taking improvement advice. As I go forward, I will continue to upgrade my knowledge, as many questions are unsolved yet, and I am on my way to solve them.
