CTO, Co-Founder, Starship Captain (“Captain Kirk”)
Raj Goel, Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), is an author, entrepreneur, IT expert, and industry leader that specializes in the field of cyber security and privacy law.
As the founder of leading IT consultation firm, Brainlink, Raj has spent more than 20 years developing proven IT solutions for a range of high-profile clients in the financial, construction, architectural and property management industries.
Raj’s passion for innovation and understanding is applied holistically to his professional endeavors. While striving to provide his clients with a quality and selection of services that won’t be found anywhere else, he also works tirelessly to better Brainlink internally by applying his award-winning Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) Culture to improve service quality, eliminate redundancies and boost staff productivity.
Raj’s methodology and commitment is the answer to the never-ending problems that result from the IT industry’s “johnny-come-lately” culture. Whereas other IT consultants and service providers work hard to follow trends as quickly as they can, it’s Raj that has been observing and predicting industry trends at each and every turn, thanks to his 10+ years of work following relevant developments with the FTC, patterns in the surveillance state and privacy culture, and more.

Co-Founder, CFO (“Dr. McCoy”)
With a Masters in Education, and a passion for archeology, Sharon is equally comfortable digging up bones, or diving deep into invoices and billing history.
Sharon & Raj met at Binghamton University in 1990, and they’ve been inseparable ever since. They also hold the distinction of being one of the first Hindu-Jewish couples in the NYC area, and their wedding was covered by NHK Television (Japan) and the New York Newsday newspaper. As CFO and co-founder of Brainlink, Sharon’s day job is managing the finances, resolving client questions and keeping the billing and expenses under control. In her off hours, Sharon enjoys sci-fi and fantasy novels, murder mysteries and CSI.

His magic and enthusiasm were sculpted into professional results over 10 years as IT Coordinator and Consultant for a variety of small businesses, Macy’s, Williams-Sonoma, the West-Islip School District, the Harford Memorial Hospital in Maryland, and the Kindercare Daycare chain.
Shival’s loves that every client brings something different to the table. The differing cultures, priorities, and challenges of each environment make each day distinctively rewarding.
