He loves challenges and can work in absolute chaos, is not afraid of failure and his yardstick of success is entirely personal, one of the reasons why within 6 years of completing his masters in management, he chose to start his own venture and one that he is still running successfully. He is an outdoor enthusiast, a triathlete & Ironman, and someone who loves rock and jazz. Rahul brings in his competence & experience of Learning & Development and training to Openskiez as curriculum expert, apart from his love for the outdoors and sport.

An Engineer, management postgraduate, and now ex-banker with over 2 decades of well-rounded experience with corporate and her own business, she thrives in the unfamiliar and loves to explore. When she’s not traveling or busy with the multiple demands of executing the Openskiez programs, she can be found at her home in Mumbai penning down short stories, her travel experiences through her blogs, and expressing herself through watercolor art or just being.

Dhyana is already ready for the next Open Skiez trip. though after a luxury trip she says.
The entire afternoon she just went gaga about how much they enjoyed the entire trip, making new friends, doing an advertisement act, rappelling, walking through the cold river, the yummy food at the base camp, collecting firewood, all the vomit stories too and much more...
She had a wonderful trip and memories created forever.
Thank you for such a well-organized camp, the minute details that was taken care of, the prompt updates and making the kids feel so comfortable.
Thank you Team Openskiez for the wonderful trip. Vyom enjoyed the outing very much. He even brought back glacier/spring water for us to drink.
