Born in Burlington, Ontario, Canada. Grew up in Burlington and Toronto (Etobicoke). My parents are from Calcutta...yet I'm not able to speak Bengali. One day.

Went to Montreal's McGill University to do a Bachelors in Computer Engineering.

Moved to Ottawa afterwards to work at Newbridge Networks and then Cisco Systems where I worked on the world's fastest router. In the meanwhile, skulked around at Ottawa's Carleton University and managed to finish a M.Eng, including a thesis on making peer-to-peer networks easier to search.

Travelled a bit too - Japan, Malaysia, HK in '98, Luxembourg in '99, Slovakia in '00.

Got married to a wonderful girl from Niagara Falls and took a honeymoon in Barbados in '01.

Southern India in '02. Cape Cod in '03. Motivated by an interest in African history and politics, we visited South Africa in '04.

Became a father in 2005!

Throughout nurtured a variety of interests, especially reading, music and finance. Indulging that last one, we've ended up here in New York while I work towards yet another degree.
