ABOUT ME

I am a journalist since 1996. My earlier posting was as City Editor of MiD DAY, a daily tabloid in Bangalore. Today, I am freelancing as a journalist and writer with The Wallstreet Journal, Workforce Management, Worldstart Inc, PC Mechanics, and many more publications both in India and abroad. I also write for SilverKris, the inflight magazine of Singapore Airlines and Paramount Airways among other things.
