About
My name is Zaid Ali and I was born in Suva, Fiji Islands. I went to Marist Brothers High and University of the South Pacific where I studied Computer Science and Physics. I was active in Internet Development in Fiji Islands and south pacific countries during 1996-1998. I moved to Silicon Valley in 1998 and did my first technology startup at WebEx where I built its MediaTone™ network across the US and Europe. I am currently Director of Technical Operation at Genius.com,Inc where I manage all aspects of Data Center and Network Operations, Email Deliverability and Corporate IT. Currently I serve as President of the San Francisco Bay area chapter of the Internet Society. I also studied classical arabic music and play middle eastern percussion instruments such as Dharbuka, Riqq and frame drum. You can catch me playing with my band Al Azifoon.
