Russ graduated from INSEAD with a burning desire to do something different and work for developing those less fortunate than himself.
He has been a banker for Standard Chartered Bank in Singapore, a consultant for Deloitte Consulting in US and a researcher for ICOS Vision Systems in Belgium, having lived and worked in five countries across the
globe. He also holds a Masters in Electrical Engineering from University of California, Irvine besides the MBA from INSEAD.
After quitting his finance job in September 2009, Russ has been working with NGOs, manufacturers and villagers to design and develop the Boond products, model and supply chain.
His responsibility is to make Boond work and become sustainable on its own two feet. He gets his energy from the realisation that he is working on some of the biggest challenges that the world has ever faced and every minute that he puts into Boond helps to make a social impact.
