I was born in Tirupati on February 1st, 1985. I was named after Late Bertrand Russell by my father.
My father was an eminent and renown physics lecturer and also, the pioneer for corporate educational institutes in the state. His popularilty as the founder of Kora Educational Institutes was matched only by his commitment to excellence and love for his students.
"Caelum videre iussit, et erectos ad sidera tollere
vultus."

from him and not just Physics. And my mother, Hemalatha is a house wife.
