Vijaye has been with Elite practically since its inception. Joining the company in May 2000, VJ has the distinction, along with Elite’s initial three (Eric, Karen and Ivan), of experiencing all five of the company’s moves to larger quarters.

A key player in Elite’s growth, VJ initially started as a CAD trainee and developed into a full-scale food service facilities planner in no time at all. As design projects were becoming implementation projects, VJ rose to the task of overseeing the jobs through completion. As a result of extreme client satisfaction in dealing with VJ, it became apparent that VJ’s fate had been sealed.

He is actively involved with the management of projects, typically the design and field implementation phases. As of late he has become quite busy as an equipment specialist assisting the Account Executives in properly specifying new equipment for Elite’s customers.

VJ obtained an Associates Degree in Architectural Design from the New York Institute of Technology and a Certificate of Completion from Island Drafting Institute in Auto-cad Sciences.
