Coursera Mentor

Impressed by my exemplary academic performance and by the support I provided to my fellow learners in the Ruby on Rails Course forums, I was given the unique opportunity to become a volunteer Coursera Mentor for a Ruby on Rails Course. My responsibilities as a mentor included answering learner questions in the discussion forums, posting new threads to spark discussion and provide feedback to Coursera staff.

Co-Founder

After evaluating the niche market and customer acquisition techniques, we approached local clients and provided them with Web Design & Development services.

Linux Intern

Played around with Nagios monitoring tool and monitored different hosts using the NRPE plug-in in a test environment. I used Squid proxy server for content filtering, caching and also added firewall rules in a Linux system. This internship helped me learn various keyboard shortcuts and ever since, I barely use the mouse to navigate around even in a windows system.
