Hi - I am Kuntal. Formally, Dr. Kuntal Dey (PhD). I am a researcher (85+), inventors (215+ granted US patents), and a technical thinker/problem solver. Transforming technology, applied computer science, society, India, the World and people, all in positive directions, are my life-goals. Science/innovation/inventions and people are my two pillars of strength. Over time, I formed the practice of talking to anyone and everyone. I love hearing about people's personal stories, challenges, dreams, journeys and all they have to say.
