I was born and raised in Colombo, Sri Lanka, in a warm middle-class family. My father's business spirit and my mother's caring nature shaped who I am. From a young age, I loved technology, inspired by my maternal uncle and cousins. I eagerly learned about computers and discovered that sharing what I knew and helping others brought me great joy. This passion eventually led me to become a technology evangelist.
One of my core beliefs is that everything we experience is unique to us as an individual. With this perspective, I strive to unleash the greatness in people, offering help and support wherever I can. My mantra, 'Everything is centered around you and everything you experience is unique to you as an individual,' encapsulates my approach to life and work.

I am grateful to have been raised in a family that supported my choices and nurtured my interests. At twenty, I moved to the United Kingdom to study Computing at the University of Portsmouth. Later, I earned a master's degree in Information Systems and Technology at City University, London. Moving to a new country was a big step, and even though I was far from home for the first time, daily video calls with my parents helped ease any homesickness as I shared my new experiences.
Beginning my career as a software consultant, I always believed that technology should serve people first. I focus on putting people at the center of my work, aiming to build a better world and a brighter future. I'm passionate about exceeding customer expectations and delivering excellent experiences. I'm committed to creating value that meets customer needs while providing the best return on investment.
As a coach and consultant, I seek out opportunities for everyone I work with, no matter their background or circumstances. I've had the privilege of working with organizations of all sizes in various industries and sectors. My drive comes from a strong passion for continuous learning and a genuine desire to share what I know.
Another principle that resonates deeply with me is, "Seek your passion with purpose, it will keep you in the flow and create value." This reminds me of how important it is to align what we love with meaningful goals, allowing us to find true fulfillment in all our pursuits.

Looking back, I'm grateful for the opportunities life has given me during my time in the UK. I'm a proud father, husband, and son, blessed with a loving family. Everyone I've met has helped shape who I am, and I'm thankful for all the connections I've made and will make.
Through coaching and consulting, I offer the guidance and tools needed to overcome challenges, seize new opportunities, and achieve success. I help people and organizations build a growth mindset, embrace change, and adapt to today's fast-paced business world. By developing resilience, creativity, and a forward-thinking approach, we can overcome obstacles and drive innovation. I believe, "Everyone is a leader, whether you're managing a team or making choices for yourself."
