Gilded Spirits

Kallar, Amrit: - Amrit Kallar grew up in India and lives in the San Francisco Bay Area. A chemical engineer with an MBA from premier institutions in the U.S. and India, she has a stellar academic record that made her a constant fixture in the far-right side of grade distributions. Amrit has worked with global technology companies, driving strategic projects and large growth initiatives, all the while barely managing to suppress her cynicism for all things that are overbearingly corporate.

Writing fiction is Amrit's heart's most profound wish. Among others are finishing the Ironman 70.3 simply to shout "I am Ironman!" (Black Sabbath style) and writing a book about everyday applications of calculus and algebra for youth in order to make math more accessible.

​​​​​​​When she's not driving her daughters to golf on busy freeways, and sometimes even while doing so, Amrit contemplates deeply, and often restlessly, about the world we live in and about the next book she will read. Gilded Spirits is her debut novel.
