I'm currently a PhD candidate at the Biocomputation group at the University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, United Kingdom.

I've been contributing to Fedora for a while now. It started with Rahul Sundaram taking a font packaging workshop. I've come a long way since then, but am still quite a learner. If there's anything I can help you with, feel free to ping me either over e-mail or one of the IM channels.

Note: Since I'm not in India, I cannot service media requests from India at the moment. Please ask the other Fedora contributors from India to help you out, or use one of the many online Linux stores to get yourself media. :(

Where/when to catch me

I'm in quite a few Fedora IRC channels, and lots of mailing lists. I should be around from 1100 - 1700 BST (British Standard Time) throughtout the week. Ping me anytime, and I'll respond ASAP :)
