About Me

I am from India - born in Kolkata, West Bengal during the 1950's. Over last 60 years or so, witnessed amazing transformation of India - from a predominately agricultural economy with large population in poverty to today's India where services account for over 50% of GDP. Illiteracy has gone down drastically, economic condition improved by leaps and bound, city-centric cosmopolitan culture has given rrise to a consuming society.

I did my education in Kolkata and Bangalore - did hons. in Physics then changed to librarianship and then to Information Technology. Did masters from Indian Statistical Institute, Bangalore and Ph D from Jadavpur University, Kolkata. Have worked in mainframe computers in the 80's with punch card to today's cloud computing and machine learning - in 9 different companies - in India and USA.

I have now retired and wish to write more - share my experiences, insights and skills.

That's all for today. Hope to be able to add some value here
