About imraj

Hi, I am Imraj, I am a software engineer from Vancouver. I went to University of British Columbia (2001-2006). After a few years at large corporations, I switched to web based developments and formed my own small company Webilize.com though the main goal behind Webilize is to be self sufficient to work on my own ideas online.
