What do you do when you’re not working?
When Ajay is not working, he enjoys playing basketball and Poker and loves watching all things football and basketball. He likes to pretend to play the guitar and considers himself to be a spiritual wanderer.

If you were to look back from the age of 80 and tell yourself anything what would it be?
Ajay would tell himself to get his MBA, not his Law Degree. Lawyering is hard. Lawyering requires you to wallow in the mud. Lawyering is rarely efficient and litigation is rarely productive. Up here, Litigation is almost always a zero sum game.

What’s one fact about your education or upbringing that few people know?
Ajay is a redneck at heart. He grew up in rural Michigan, and he used to snowmobile to his neighbors house, go ice fishing /bow hunting, and take his oversized Dodge Ram mud bogging for fun.

What are two things on your bucket list?
1. Take two months off work and go to Katmandu, travel Northern India, possibly Tibet
2. Drive to Alaska
