Murali Welcomes you

About this page . . .
I am currently working for a very prominent MNC in Bangalore.  Gotta keep it confidential :-)

I have worked previously at Wipro Technologies, Bangalore and prior to that at GE Industrial Systems Private Limited, Secunderabad as a Senior Systems Engineer. It has been a long rewarding journey of 11+ years and I have enjoyed my previous stints in various capacities and significantly earned employer kudos.
In my previous employment  as a System Administrator by TDI (Technic Digital Inc) I worked for their client   Synopsys (India) Private Ltd. I was part of Networking Computing Services (NCS) Group and worked with a wonderful set of experienced colleagues with a wide amount of skills complementing one another. The group was headed by Ms. Usha B Jagini and I had the good  fortune of being able to work along with a team of professionals in the area of System Administration - Jaysimha, Raghu, Mohandas, Santosh and Paritosh.   

Prior to joining TDI,  I was employed by
NCST as an Assistant Manager inSPC department and my duties ranged from User Consultancy, System Administration on Unix to certain other Management activities. It was a wonderful experience working at NCST, Juhu. The department was led by Mr. Bharat N Desai.  The team also comprised of Mr. Khandge, Ms. Gayatri, Mr. Prasad, Mr. Parag and Mr. Narayanan at the time I left NCST. It was an enriching time at NCST. I had the opportunity to complete my PGDST (Post Graduate Diploma in Software Technology) and CCST (Certificate Course in Software Technology). These courses of total 18 months duration have been of immense value in my career.
The city of Mumbai is known for it's fast paced life and that is something which I miss having left the place for Bangalore. B'lore is a peaceful city though it is developing at a rapid pace with the advent of IT giants.
I am from Bangalorethe Garden City of India. Bangalore is the capital of the state of Karnataka. Also known as the Silicon Valley of India among the IT people. I did my schooling at Bangalore and I concluded my graduation with a Bsc (Computer Science) degree from Christ College , Bangalore. After my graduation I underwent training at SERC for 15 months. At SERC Prof. Dr N. Balakrishnan , R Krishnamurthy and Dr Sampath were very much helpful to me and I am thankful to them for the way they encouraged me during my training there. In addition to them my Colleagues, Senior staff, Office and Security staff were also very helpful during my training and I am ever grateful to them.
I have completed the requirements for the Masters in Computer Applications (MCA) through distance education conducted by IGNOU. Awaiting the results of the final year project for obtaining the Master's degree. 
My Native place is Salem in Tamilnadu. I am a Sourashtrian.. The Sourashtrian website has been initiated by Mr. Ragu Tirukonda to whom all Sourashtrians owe a thanks to and would be great if we contributed to his efforts.
I also indulge in a lot of Sports. I spent a part of my time on Badminton and the results are very pleasing - my waistline has reduced ;-). The NCST Open 2000 tourney completed successfully and the results are on the web. Click here to see the results .  I have not been able to continue playing badminton after leaving NCST and this has resulted in my waistline increasing beyond expectations.  
I love Photography. I haven't been able to do justice to this interest of mine for a very long time. I plan to get out all good snaps taken by me onto my home page soon. It is going to be interesting. I love to write to friends all over the world , I have pen-pals. I am very much attached to my family and relatives, most of all my dear sister Priya who is no more.
