Kshitija Sarda — Co-Founder
Being a catalyst in people’s journey from point A to B, providing resources and helping them in every way possible makes me happy. Helping someone get closer to their goals, personal or career ones, gives me joy. And I was lucky that I was been able to connect the dots and understand the pattern in everything that gives me a kick. 🏫 Throughout my school and early college days, I used to finish my homework in school itself and also be there in the examination hall hours before the reporting time. I passed on my homework to my classmates so that they could work and submit theirs on time, and sit outside in a group to explain theorems and chemical reactions to my friends, helping them prepare for the exam. 🎯 Started up when I was in the last semester of my college. As a writer, I never found a collaborative platform where artists from various fields could come together, discuss creative ideas and work towards their passion. So went ahead and built a platform for artists, which eventually became a community of 20,000+ artists across India. The joy of helping people by providing them freelance projects, stage to perform and support from fellow creators cannot be put in words. 📈 In 2020, I exited my role and worked for the gig economy to help people get access to meaningful employment. The number of active freelancers who worked with us grew 4x within a few months. I got a chance to lead the sourcing vertical while working with the Co-Founder of the company. Again, the sheer happiness of helping people support their families, fund their education and become independent is incomparable. 🚀 At GrowthX, I work closely with Operators to help them build a fulfilling career & Founders to build strong teams with the top growth, product and marketing talent in the country. All life is a full circle, and connecting the dots and looking backwards makes me confident while I continue to build GrowthX. 🔗 If you are a Founder or growth leader, I would be happy to connect and co-build a solid growth team.
