After a short stint in The Times of India and as a college lecturer in Kolkata, she set off to the US for her second Master’s in Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. She worked in public policy research and advocacy in U.S. think tanks and non-profits such as Cascade Policy Institute and Heartland Institute before turning into a freelance writer with her fingers dipped in multiple fiction and non-fiction projects.
She contributes political and social articles for Indian and U.S. news magazines like The Wire, Scroll, Karvaan India, and American Kahani. She writes columns on Indian American issues for The Quint and Dainik Bhaskar.

Originally hailing from Kolkata, she spent her childhood in a civil service family surrounded by voracious readers and fervent political discussions, Sreya nurtured a wish to write from an early age. Sreya currently lives in Sudbury, Massachusetts with her spouse and teenage son, and when she is not writing you will find her in the kitchen cooking up a spicy curry to fight New England’s icy winters. She enjoys recreating traditional Bengali delicacies using locally grown vegetables and inviting friends over for hearty meals.
