Office Beacon Leadership

Thousands of employees, global operations, with no partners or investors sure didn't come easy. My entrepreneurial journey started In mid-2001, when I traveled from Los Angeles to Vadodara, India, rented an office, hired five employees and started a business—all within one week. Without any funding, VC or partners, I have been able to grow those operations to thousands of full-time employees. In 2012, I similarly traveled to Manila, Philippines and was offered to take over the facilities and employees by a subsidiary of VistaPrint. All of the sudden, we were a multi-national corporation and now employ over 3000+ full-time employees globally. Prior to starting Office Beacon, I founded Pacific Games, which licensed video game content to hundreds of online retailers from Amazon to eBay. After becoming the world's largest provider of video game content, Pacific Games was acquired by Muze, a John Kluge funded company, and was eventually rolled into what is now Rovi Corporation (Nasdaq: ROVI). Before I discovered my entrepreneurial streak (pre-2001), I held management positions at Fidelity Investments and also served on its Global System steering committee. During the late 90’s dot-com era, I held senior management positions with several internet start-ups primarily working with venture capitalists responsible for the launches of PC Mall and MacMall & several other entities. I am a Harvard Business School alumnus. I also have an Economics degree from the University of Toronto & earned an MBA, from the Schulich School of Business at York University, Toronto, Canada.
