My journey into the transformative power of open source began with early engagements in pioneering projects like Mandrake Linux, SugarCRM, and Asterisk. This foundational experience across programming and telecommunications has fueled my conviction in collaborative innovation. Up until now, I have been scratching the open-source solutions surface. But now I want to make my hands dirty with open-source involvement. 

So, recognizing the immense potential of open-source solutions and specifically within the financial services industry, I founded 'Delivering Innovative Solutions' (DIS). DIS is not just a startup; it's a commitment to delivering revolutionary, value-added solutions, with a core focus on championing open standards and collaborative development. We firmly believe in the power of initiatives like FINOS to drive unprecedented innovation and efficiency within finance, and DIS is strategically positioned to be a catalyst for its widespread adoption. 

As a FINOS Ambassador, I am eager to leverage my technical background, entrepreneurial drive, and deep-seated belief in open collaboration to actively promote FINOS principles, foster community engagement, and contribute to the growth of a vibrant and impactful ecosystem.
