Greetings

Neela and I are originally from India, having spent the last seven years in Boston and Singapore. We have a beautiful 17 month old daughter Sanjana, who is extremely excited at the prospect of "exploring" the big wide world around her. Prior to coming to Ithaca, I spent three years leading a product development team in Asia for Teradyne Inc, the world's leading semiconductor test equipment manufacturer. Travelling across Asia was an exhilarating experience, but proved to be a big dietary challenge, yes I am a vegetarian!! I have an undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Pune in India and a graduate degree from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Worcester, Massachusetts. I want to switch careers from engineering to consulting, and found the Accelerated MBA program at the Johnson School to be the perfect fit given my background and career aspirations. I look forward to sharing my experiences and perspectives about life in Ithaca and the Johnson School over the next 12 months.

Hi Krishna, I saw your profile in this blog here and wanted to sync up with you as I too plan to apply to the Cornell AMBA commencing 2009 and have a profile similar to yours -- B.Tech from India, an MS from here and around 6 years at Intel. Is there a # I can call U at or an email I can send you, please. VSS

Hello- I too am interested in applying for the AMBA program 2010. I graduated from Vanderbilt with a pH.D in the natural sciences and am interested in entering the business world of science. How was your experience with the transition from science to business? did your school provide you with the tools to "get your feet wet" in the business world?

Hi Krishna,

Congratulations on finishing your MBA. It must be a great feeling. Time really flies when you are having fun. I am at the opposite end of the spectrum. I am just starting to apply to B-Schools. Here is my blog for prospective MBA seekers visiting your blog.
