Vinson Xavier Palathingal, President and CEO

Vinson loves to think outside the box for business solutions.  He adopts a critical approach in problem solving, bordering sometimes on the abstract.  Vinson believes that this approach enables clients to "do it right" the first time and therefore saves time and resources in the future. As the founder of AMARAM, Vinson instills a no-nonsense, roll-up-your-sleeves approach in providing complete IT solutions to complex business problems.

Vinson founded AMARAM in 1998 with a focus on client/server computing; web-based applications and design services were added later. Vinson is responsible for company's strategic vision and development of ideas. Vinson also provides direction, motivation, energy and professional leadership to the management team to translate the vision into results-focused and profitable policies and programs. Vinson is directly overseeing the marketing and business development efforts to obtain both government and private sector businesses; and maintains an extensive professional network resulting in strategic alliances with other reputed companies and remarkably satisfied customers.

Prior to AMARAM, Vinson held positions as Business Systems Technologist (FannieMae, Washington DC), Programmer/Analyst (Metro Washington Council of Governments), Consultant (KITCO, formerly, the Technology Consulting Division of Industrial Development Bank of India), and Project Engineer (Gulf Road, Al-Ahsa, Saudi Arabia).
