My
last year at IT BHU was when I met the love of my life, Debu. She was doing
her graduation at Women's college in BHU. We met at a fete organized by IT
BHU students and we clicked from the first meeting. We had some wonderful
time together in Varanasi and before I realized, my term at IT BHU was over.
She has been a part of my life since then.
My First Job was with a software services company called Interra
Technologies Pvt. Ltd. I was in Interra for close to two years and learned
my first lessons of professional life. In retrospect, I can say I did fairly
well at Interra. I mostly worked in Bug fixing and development (using
Microsoft Technologies) for an ERP Financial system. I had the opportunity
of working with some wonderful guys like Manish Das, Ravi Kapoor, Depti
Kalyan Saha, Saikat Sen, Sankalp Gaggar, Awanti Singh, Ruchita Sharma and
Manish Kumar at Interra. I learned something or the other from each of these
guys! I still remember my Shimla trip with Manish and Rajdeep...Interra was
as much fun as work, if not more! Debu, in the meanwhile, had joined
Institute of Productivity and Management (IPM), Meerut, for her MBA. This
brought us within 80 Kms from each other and we were soon meeting whenever
we could take out time.
I switched over to my present job at Talisma Corporation in Bangalore in
June, 2000. Working for the Professional Services division of a product
company was a very different experience and I relished every moment of it.
Project Management, Functional \ Technical analysis and CRM consultancy -
all of this was new and exciting - something I always wanted to do. High
point of my career came when I started traveling extensively in my job at
Professional Services, both domestic and International. I traveled to a
number of countries in Europe on official assignments. Foreign travel opened
my eyes to a whole new world. I made a few good friends during the course of
work in UK. Sean O' Connell - honest and simple guy, a good friend, Steve -
work mate, good lad, Richard - simple and jolly natured, James - fun loving
and a great sense of humor.
Year 2003 was one of the most important years in my journey of life. I got
married to the love of my life, Debjani. Immediately after my marriage, I
took transfer to Talisma (Europe) in and have been here in England since
then. Living in Europe has its own charms - one can never get enough of the
abundant natural beauty, rich, diverse cultures and vast history spanning
the numerous countries of Europe - you just want to go on and on and keep
exploring!
I am satisfied with the way things have worked out in my life...There is
still a lot to be done and goals to be achieved..."The woods are lovely,
dark and deep/ But I have promises to Keep/ and miles to go before I sleep/
and miles to go before I sleep...".
Why a website for
myself?
I
have always been vocal about what I feel. However, I always felt a need to
tell more about my life and people who made a difference to my life. My
family and friends know me well but I would never be able to express my
gratitude to them for being a part of my life. This site is a humble attempt
to tell the world what they mean to me. I also hope to give some insight
about myself to all who would want to know about me.
Dreams unlimited!
Music is one of my passions. I am interested in both classical and modern
music - Indian and western. Unfortunately, I cannot sing. Actually, I am a
horrible singer (though I would never admit!). I want to be able to sing at
least as good as not to make people want to throw up!
I want to own a company of mine one day. There is lot of homework that I
need to do before I venture into something. Need to gain invaluable industry
experience , before I start toying seriously with idea of my own company.
