Hi,

I am Priyam's father and before I get into specifics about us, following is how she describes herself:

"I am a person who likes to spend time with close friends and still enjoys her own company. I like exploring new places and cuisines, and at the same time love spending an idyllic weekend watching a favorite movie eating some comfort food. I like to read, paint and be good at my work (designing hi-tech chips) . I wish to learn photography someday and take some breathtaking pictures with my DSLR. I love going on long drives, listening to music and all the pop culture stuff everyone is crazy about

I love spending time with my family; watching silly hindi movies with mom, laughs with dad and kid around with my brother and sis-in-law. Since last five years we had an addition to our family, my little nephew whom i love to adore and pamper. I believe I am a person who likes life as is, but still wishes to experience the new and... more exciting."

Now as for the before promised specifics, we are a working class Telugu/Hindi speaking family of 5. I have two kids including Priyam, she has an elder brother who is married and settled in California, Bay Area.

We spent all of our children's formative years in Madhya Pradesh due to my work with central government. I retired as Sr. Divisonal Accounts Officer before I moved to Hyderabad with my wife, 4 years ago.

Priyam did her schooling and engineering in Madhya Pradesh (Bhopal/Indore), while visiting her grand parents back in Hyderabad, every summer. She speaks Hindi & Telugu as her mother tongue.

After completing her bachelors she worked for about a year in Noida at Cadence Design Systems. She later went on to pursue higher education in the US and did her masters from University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in Computer Science Engineering.

She worked for Intel at Hillsboro, OR for past 6 years as a chip designer. She moved to San Jose 3 years ago to pursue a similar role with Apple.
