"You get out of your MBA what you put into it" - Ashwin Sinha About Ashwin Sinha Ashwin is a Cloud Consultant, focusing on helping companies chart their cloud journeys using Salesforce. He enjoys meeting people and loves all things sports. Must be the reason why he considers himself to be an adventure seeker - he moved to 3 different countries (UK, India, Canada) and to 15 different apartments in the last decade. As a Finance and Economics undergrad at Manchester, banking was right up his alley. Life is fascinating as Consulting, and he was able to blend his desire to solve problems and collaborate with amazing people at the same time. He came to Canada in 2017 to join the Ted Rogers MBA - and what an experience that was! He made wonderful friends (all CEOs in his eyes) and they won many accolades at Case Competitions, including at the Canada MBA Games.
