My first program was to develop and invoicing system in FoxPro. I started my programming career with foxpro long back. It was a good experience to develop first commercial application in FoxPro. After this project I started learning Java and realized the power of Java and decided to switch to Java technology.

Learning Java was little difficult and it took around 6 months to master Java. All these things I did 7 years back. Now I am a project manager in a reputed company.
