Faith and Family: The Foundation of My Journey
I was saved by the loving Grace of God at the age of 18, but my deepest connection with God was forged during a transformative period in Hyderabad, India—from October to December 2004.
In 2006, I embarked on a new chapter by moving to the United States to pursue a Master's degree at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT). Little did I know that this journey would lead me to my life's greatest blessings. Through God's divine plan, I met my wonderful wife, Rhoda, on Shaadi—a platform that has connected countless hearts.
Rhoda has been a cornerstone in our family's spiritual and community life. At Zion Prayer House in Irving, TX, she leads the Sunday School program, nurturing the spiritual growth of our young members with dedication and love. Her commitment to service extends beyond the church as she serves patients with compassion and expertise as a Physical Therapist at UT Southwestern Medical Center.
Our union was further blessed with the arrival of our son, Samuel, and later, our daughter, Shayna. God's direction led us to the Dallas-Fort Worth area in Texas, where we've witnessed His purpose unfold in our lives. Despite our human imperfections, we remain committed to serving Him faithfully.
My own spiritual journey has been deeply enriched by academic pursuits. I hold an MA in Biblical Exposition from Liberty University and am currently pursuing a Doctor of Ministry (D.Min) in Expository Preaching and Teaching from the same institution. These studies have deepened my understanding of Scripture and strengthened my commitment to sharing God's word.

Inspiring Tomorrow’s Leaders at DBU
At Dallas Baptist University (DBU), I have the honor of teaching Product Management. My approach intertwines technical knowledge with the Gospel and life lessons drawn from my journey. God gave my His grace to pursue an MA in Biblical Exposition from Liberty University in 2024 and am currently pursuing a Doctor of Ministry (D.Min) in Expository Preaching and Teaching.
My goal is to nurture future leaders who are both technically proficient and grounded in Christian values. As Proverbs 1:5 says, "Let the wise listen and add to their learning," I aim to inspire holistic growth in my students.

Currently, I serve as the Director of Product at Upbound Group, leading the Digital Commerce team. Our focus is on enhancing the ecommerce platforms for Acima and Rent-A-Center, as well as their mobile applications.
Over the past 15+ years, my career has encompassed leadership roles at Michaels Stores, 7-Eleven, Vizient Inc., and Ambit Energy. Each experience has reinforced my belief in Philippians 4:13—"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"—as I navigate the challenges and rewards of product management.

I believe that every endeavor is an opportunity to serve others and reflect God's love. My entrepreneurial journey includes:
