After Passing M.Sc. in Statistics
from the university of Dhaka I joined Sonali Bank, the largest
nationalized bank in Bangladesh, on October 15, 1998. Sonali bank posted me in the
Information Technology(IT) division, where I found my real
interest. I have been trained and prepared for IT related work. I
had interest in programming languages and eventually it got
nourished.
Later I moved to The Premier Bank Limited, Bangladesh on August 8,
2000. Through my professional career I achieved significant
proficiency in both statistical analysis and computation. Also, I
have some achievements in launching various IT related products
