Sayantan Pal’s Summary

I have been in the blogging scene for the past 3 and a half years and have been writing professionally for the past 1 year. Thanks to my forté in the English language, I have been lucky enough to be blessed with a keen eye to details and the power to mince words to my own advantage.

The fact that I hail from a technical background (academically, an Electrical Engineer), helps in giving an analytic and more practical approach to every detail and it finally reflects in every piece that I write.

Sayantan Pal’s Specialties:

A Freelance Writer, Pro Blogger, Social Media Enthusiast and Open Source & Technology Evangelist.
