My name is pronounced with a hard "g" and so it is sort of like saying "wig"nesh.  My name refers to the Hindu god Vinayagar. 

I am a graduate student pursuing master's degree in Aerospace Engineering from UIUC. I earned my bachelor's degree from Madras Institute of Technology, India. 

I love design engineering, machines, automobiles, fluid mechanics and music. I can go for hours together working on a challenging project without giving up, because I love the satisfaction I get in the end.
