This is a short Glimpse into my Life
I hail from the beautiful temple city of Kanchipuram in India.I come from a very humble background,did my schooling in a government school with minimal facilities but never brooded over the not haves.With high motivation to achieve success in life ,had focussed my childhood on studies and strived hard to get a seat into one of the best Dental colleges in India.I developed an inclination towards clinical as well as teaching even during my college days which made me start my career as a Lecturer alongside my clinical practice of Dentistry.
I overcame career adversity at an early age by finding my own path and true passion which has brought me to the place I’m in today. I identified Healthcare Operations, Quality Management , Medical Administration and Academic Leadership as my strengths quite early in my career and I keep strengthening them at every possible opportunity to keep climbing up the career leader.
My family is my biggest strength and I thank God for my loving and caring Wife Dr.T.Priyamathi,BDS,MPH and my most precious gift my daughter Nethra.
All my success and achievements are dedicated to my ever encouraging parents, supportive siblings, in laws and my wife .
Smart Work,Perseverance and Sincere efforts are the keys to continuous success.
I Believe and therefore I am.
