Early in his career Suhail worked as a research scientist for Schlumberger and a director of product at Tysons-based Microstrategy. He studied electrical engineering at Rensselaer and attended graduate school at Yale. Suhail grew up in Mumbai and believes his deep attachment to Urdu literature and poetry comes by way of his ancestral connection to Azamgarh in Eastern UP in India. His wish for every young person is captured by Iqbal’s khuda tujhe kisi tufaan se aashna kar de.
