"We are elated to have Deepak join our team and lead us in our quest for perpetual youth for America's grandparents," said Steve Leber, Chairman and Co-CEO of Grandparents.com. "Deepak is one of the most amazing persons I have ever met.

We absolutely love having Deepak join the Grandparents.com team!"
