Mahesh Makvana
Mahesh has been a technology writer for the last many years and he has contributed some of the resourceful guides and blog posts to various online publications such as How-To Geek, MakeUseOf and MakeTechEasier.
One of the things he loves to do is explain to people how they can use technology for their benefit. From writing data to NFC tags to automate tasks to building small yet really useful utilities, he has done it all over the last few years to make his life easier.
He thinks everyone should be able to make the most out of their devices and one of the ways he's trying to make that possible for everyone is by writing how-to guides on various topics. These topics often include Mac, Android, iOS, and Windows as these are the building blocks of anything we usually work on.
You'll often find Mahesh wandering around various tech sites trying to find that "golden nugget" which could make existing tasks more efficient, and he occasionally attends events like CES and MWC.
When he's not thinking of technology (which is very rare), he's thinking of the food items to order online as food is the second thing he loves the most - tech being the first.
