About Author
Kunal Dey is senior news writer at news.meaww. He is originally a computer engineer who took a keen interest in US and world politics after Donald Trump’s historic win in 2016. Now based in Bengaluru, India, he tries to bring a fresh perspective to the goings on at Washington, D.C. And when he’s not chasing stories from Capitol Hill, you’ll catch him hitting the gym, taking his car out for a spin, whipping up something tasty in the kitchen, losing himself in a book, or jamming on his guitar.

Area of Interest
Kunal’s been all over election cycles, primaries, campaigns, polls, and consequential moments that shape American politics. His writing delves into everything from libertarian and conservative ideas to liberal perspectives, hoping to give everyone something to think about. In doing that, he hopes to cut through the noise, pulling from a mix of agencies and outlets across the board to keep things balanced and try to make sense of the messy bloodsport that is politics.

Previous Experiences
Kunal has previously been a co-founder of multiple startups in the logistics and software industries respectively, overseeing branding, content, operations and helping improve the overall throughputs of various clients via automation
