I have been living in the U.S since 1976, came here at age 18 from Hyderabad India. I have two boys Arsalan and Samir. Arsalan is an advertising executive in DC and Samir just graduated from University of Kansas and as a budding political operative, works for US Senator Sam Brownback of Kansas.
Random Thoughts: I am into a second career as a Lawyer and a University educator, after 20 plus years as an entrepreneur.
After the kids left the house for college, I started college and finished undergraduate and then a Law degree and Masters of Law in E-Commerce.
I have run for political office (state representative) on a Republican party ticket in 2004, unfortunately I lost by about 1000 votes.
I teach business law at Friends University for undergraduates.
My interests are Politics, evolutionary biology, American constitution and classical liberalism. Islam and Muslim identity are also on the radar at times.
Favorite Reading: Don Quixote, the Moral Animal, Rights of Man
Favorite Writers: Robert Wright, Thomas Paine, Miguel Cervantes
