I am Vishal Monpara working as a Technical Consultant in a company in Houston. I have completed my M.S. (Computer Science) from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi in May 2006. I have completed my under graduation in Computer Science from The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda in May 2003.
I am a proud volunteer of Bochasanvasi Shri Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS). HDH Pramukh Swami Maharaj is my spiritual guru. Under His guidance and inspiration, I am engaged in various social activities to make this world a better place to live.
I am a toddler in Gujarati poetry which is reflected at my Gujarati Gazal Website. I am an active member and web master of Gujarati Sahitya Sarita, a group of Gujarati literature lover. Unique combination of love for Gujarati, technical skills and inspiration from my Guru led me to develop various Indian language tools. I have developed Indian language type pad for 9 Indian scripts: Bengali(Assamese, Bengali, Manipuri), Devanagari(Hindi, Marathi, Nepali, Sanskrit), Gujarati, Gurmukhi(Punjabi), Kannada, Malaylam, Oriya, Tamil and Telugu. I also developed font converter which converts Non-unicode Gujarati fonts into Gujarati Unicode font.
My work for Gujarati language is recognized by many prominent Gujarati news papers. Check out Media page for more information.
