I am currently working as an Architect Advisor at Microsoft (in Singapore). In my previous role I was a Vice President at Bank Of America Merrill Lynch where I was leading an Options Trading Platform as well as Real-Time downstream feed systems.  Before joining Microsoft I was a Connected System Developer MVP for 7 consecutive years. I am frequently invited to speak at technology conferences. I am also a published author (read about my new book at http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Windows-Server-AppFabric-Cookbook/dp/1849684189/)

My areas of interest include Enterprise Architecture, Cloud Computing, SOA, .NET, WinRT, Design Patterns and Quantum Computation. I have presented at various international conferences on Architecture, Design and Software Development. I am also a geek, father and a husband. I have been involved with various technical communities in Pakistan, UAE and Singapore. I have also conducted courses at Dept. Of Computer Science, University of Karachi and PAF KIETas a visiting faculty member.
