Hi!

My name is Anindita Basu. I’m a technical writer. I make unfamiliar things look less frightening.

How to pronounce my name

ʌnɪndɪtɑː (uh-nin-di-taa)

I was born and raised in Allahabad. I studied the sciences, took a business degree, worked in the public sector for a decade, and then switched careers to join the technology industry, where I plan to spend the rest of my working life.

I’m fond of languages, books, movies, and music (and don’t like cats, crowds, and cooking). I am fascinated by ancient India, and out of that fascination grew an API around the Vedas and a query service around the Mahabharat.
