Howl About You

Employee Spotlight Series

NC State employs more than 8,000 employees who work across a multitude of colleges, divisions, departments, offices and units that spread across the state. Even though some of us have developed close professional relationships and friendships with colleagues, for many of us getting to know anyone other than our daily co-workers is difficult. That’s why we’ve created Howl About You, a page where we shine a spotlight on our employees by letting them share five facts about themselves. As you read the entries on Howl About You, we hope you discover someone who shares the same professional or personal interests as you and make a connection with them. 

Learn how to participate in Howl About You!

I love taking on challenges that push me physically and mentally. I completed the Ironman North Carolina last year, which consisted of swimming 1.2 miles, riding a bike for 56 miles and running for 13.1 miles.


I have two young kids, and my biggest motivation is setting an example for them when it comes to perseverance and discipline.

I am originally from Mumbai, India, and have been calling North Carolina home for the past 10 years. I also recently celebrated 10 years with NC State.

I’m a member of the Enterprise Application Services team in the Office of Information Technology. I love everything related to data — from participating in Kaggle challenges to mentoring at the American Statistical Association DataFest at NC State.

I enjoy traveling, exploring new cuisines and spending time outdoors with my family whenever possible.

How To Participate

We’d love for you to submit five facts about yourself so we can share them on our website and/or in Howl You Know, the HR newsletter. Just fill out this form, and our communications team will review your submission for publication. If you have questions or know of an employee who would be great for us to spotlight, send an email to hrcommunications@ncsu.edu and write Howl About You in the subject line.
