Didn’t you leave your native India to come to America?
Yes, at age 20 I enrolled in masters degree program in engineering. I was the youngest student in master’s program. After graduation, in those days students were allowed to work 18 months maximum in their field of study. I was hired by a large manufacturing company in Chicago. When my 18 months were up, I gave my 2 weeks notice. The company talked me into staying longer and petitioned for my permanent visa. Because I liked my co-workers and bosses, I stayed. It was amazing success in manufacturing outfits for me, ending up as corporate manager of CAD/CAM.
