Akhilesh Mathur


 

I work for a United Nations specialized agency called the Universal Postal Union.

I graduated from Delhi University in 1975. After a brief stint as a structural designer in Panaji, Goa, I joined the Department of Posts in the Government of India in 1979. I worked there for ten years before joining the Universal Postal Union. The UPU, an intergovernmental organization based in Berne, Switzerland, coordinates postal services between its 191 member countries.

I am married to Anjali Mathur. We have two sons. Jayant is a senior at the University of Southern California's Marshall School of Business, and Dhruv is in Grade 12 at the International School of Berne.

I am interested in trekking, boating, physical oceanography, travel, defence affairs, aviation, ham radio, music and mathematics.
