A free mind

To write about me, really needed some thinking. What have I to say and what is it that I make myself as an entity ?

I can start with me as Ravi Venugopal, a south indian born and raised in Chennai. By mind 90′s, an engineer who has no clue about what he graduated upon.

Starting a life as a sales executive in Mumbai and Gujarat with a knowledge of hindi synonymous to a few movie names. Eventually, life got to the freedom and made my turn towards Chennai and by late 90′s marched right into the IT arena.

After a long unsuccessful tirade with many packages and interviews, it took me one insult at an interview to touch my spirit and I went on to become a database administrator. Within a short period of time, landing in the US and marched on to work successfully for a few years. Life was good until my spirit would not make me stay at the same stale mate work.

In 2003, I start my own venture, the quick and easy Staff augmentation aka body shop consulting in the US. The culture involved in this type of work prompted me to look in a direction of software development for the help of small business to have an ethical practice.  Bonsai group, my venture, moved into IT projects and product manufacturing.

In 2008, it finally struck me that human values and humans were the major asset to any organization or culture across the globe. I started Rooster HR, a software product like that produces and caters to the HR tool needs for small and medium enterprise organizations across the world. With Rooster, I plan to help with organizations grow to the next level while addressing their base values of growing networking within their organization.

Reading through my life so far, it was quite evident that I am never going to be ‘sitting’ in one place or find a ‘stable’ monotonous job or skill. It does not fit my spirit. Delving deeper into the analysis of myself, brought me to a point where I have to be rendering a service to the nature that  I belong with.

So, I begin my journey into the next realms of my life, blogging in areas where I intend to make a difference.

Still marching on,

Ravi
