Bio for talks

If you need a short bio to introduce me, you’re welcome to use this.

Anand is an LLM psychologist at Straive. (It’s not an official title. He just calls himself that.) He co-founded Gramener, a data science company that narrates visual data stories, which Straive acquired. He is considered one of India’s top 10 data scientists and is a regular TEDx/Pycon speaker.

Anand is a gold medalist at IIM Bangalore and an alumnus of IIT Madras, London Business School, IBM, Infosys Consulting, Lehman Brothers, and BCG.

More importantly, he has hand-transcribed every Calvin & Hobbes strip ever, is addicted to Anime (thanks to his daughter), and dreams of watching every film on the IMDb Top 250 (except The Shining).

He blogs at s-anand.net. His talks are at bit.ly/anandtalks.

I’m on social media on LinkedIn, Github, Twitter, YouTube.

Here are some pictures you may use.

Logistics

  • Presentation: I don’t have presentations to share. Often, I present interactive demos.
    • Laptop: I use my laptop (Lenovo, Ubuntu, HDMI + USB3) to present. No audio. I need my laptop near the podium to type.
  • Internet: My demos need Internet. I use mobile data. If the venue network is bad, please arrange WiFi.
  • Security: I don’t carry ID. If security requires one, I’d appreciate an escort to take me through with my phone and laptop.
  • Recording: I encourage you to record my talk. Please share the recording with me.

Fee / honorarium

  • I don’t charge nor pay a fee for public talks. If you want to send gifts, I only accept dry fruits.
  • Contact me for corporate / private talks.
