Personal Statement
From a young age I have always had an interest in computers. I continued
this interest in my education, but my interests diverged from the main
stream. While my friends and classmates were interested in databases and
programming, I opted more for what services IT could provide and what
could be added on. From starting out with an interest in various file
transfer protocols and communication protocols, I settled into
webhosting in my early twenties. Since then I haven't looked back and I
constantly push myself to exceed in this field. From Piyush Somani, ESDS
CEO, I have learnt that in business you can't stand still, because if
you do you will end up slipping backwards. This is why both on a
personal level and a professional level I always strive to move forward.
I'm happy to say that this is a quality ESDS both embodies and
demonstrates on a daily basis.
