Academic Journey
I hold a Bachelor of Social Science (BSS) degree in Economics from the University of Rajshahi with a 3.78/4.00 CGPA. Furthermore, I obtained my Master of Social Science degree in Economics (with thesis) from the same institution with a 3.92/4.00 CGPA.
I wrote my Master’s thesis on the stock market as I developed an interest in finance which evolved from reading the book titled For the Love of Money written by Sam Polk.
Economics was certainly not on my preferred list of subjects. However, I quickly fell in love with the subject after watching a couple of lectures on ocw.mit.edu by Jonathan Gruber and reading the book 101 Things Everyone Should Know About Economics.
I began grasping the core concepts and exploring the subject. I guess I was good at it, as confirmed by my friends and classmates who I tutored during exams.
My days at Rajshahi are unforgettable. I will always cherish the memories of my friends, teachers and the overall vibe. It taught me economics, but most importantly, how to live life.
Professional Experience
Since 2019, I have been working as a translator between Bengali (Bangla) and English for international development partners, local publications, foreign clients, research companies, government agencies and so forth. I translated training manuals, annual reports, books, legal documents, performance agreement, focus group discussions and such.
In addition, I have created websites for my clients and done data analysis and visualization works.
I am also teaching students and my classmates economics. Most recently, I have started teaching English for IELTS.
If you need my services in these areas, do not hesitate to reach out to me.
