Praveen was my colleague during my tenure as a Programmer Analyst with Cognizant. He is one of the best and the brightest guys I have ever met. No wonder he is an IIM graduate. Avid reader and a highly creative thinker. His social media interactions are very creative and always fun to read. He is gifted with a very expressive mind and his mastery of the English language is commendable. Typical B-School lad and best guy to work with if you looking for some sharp intellect.
