Krishna Gollapudi, Application Developer – With a master’s degree in Computer Science and seven years of experience in developing software applications, Krishna has participated in all programming cycles at a variety of companies. One such example is UGA’s student portal (my.uga.edu), which he designed, developed, and tested while rapidly advancing through his department.
Although he was an electronics and communications major during his undergrad, a job offer from Syntel Inc. while he was a freshman made him realize that Information Technology would be the field in which he would make his greatest achievements.
Krishna’s Master’s degree came with training in diverse fields of computer science, ranging from theoretical problems solved using Algorithms and Time Calculation to developing Enterprise successful applications using the latest trends of software technologies like Cloud computing and Artificial Intelligence.
The headline of Krishna’s thesis was Cloud computing. He developed the SemCloud framework to compose applications on the cloud using a new annotation schema named SAWADL (Semantically Annotated Web Application Description Language). Krishna’s goal is to eventually be a lead software architect managing a wonderful team capable of amazing feats.
