About

Hi, I'm Umesh Jakhar, an #IITian, author, and entrepreneur. With a passion for #education and technology, I founded "Khabri Bai," a news app designed to keep users informed and engaged. As an edufluencer, I share insights and tips on LinkedIn to help students and professionals achieve their goals. My Journey: - 5x Founder: - 2012: My first startup, olx like site for campus - 2013: Cashback website and browser plugin - 2015: An online shopping game app - Lockdown: AI-based personalised mobile rankings - Post-Lockdown: A personalised news briefing App - Published two books: - The LinkedIn Secret - Miss Stranger Viral Moments: In 2023, a social media post featuring my parents' first trip to the Andaman went viral, touching the hearts of millions worldwide. This heartwarming story was featured by Humans of Bombay, further amplifying my inspiring journey from a village farm to the iconic #TimesSquare billboard. Recognitions: I've been recognized by leading publications such as Times of India, The Economic Times, Hindustan Times, News18, and MoneyControl for my invaluable insights shared with #JEEAdvanced aspirants. These recognitions highlight my commitment to making a difference in the field of education. Background: Graduating from #IITKGP in 2018, I was born on July 7, 1994, into a lower middle-class family in Rajasthan, where I learned the value of hard work and determination. Today, I have a significant following and am recognized as a prominent personality in my field, guiding countless individuals to break the cycle of poverty through education. Professional Skills: My social media stardom (yes, it’s a thing) is just the tip of the iceberg. I excel in core technology and product management, having successfully navigated innovative projects from ideation to execution. Core Skills: - Product Management - Technology Innovation - Strategic Problem-Solving - Leadership and Team Collaboration Let's Connect: Let’s connect and collaborate to drive innovation in education and technology. When I’m not working on my next project, I’m exploring new tech, mentoring students, or sharing my journey on social media. I’m also into modeling, playing the flute, fitness, and enjoying loud music, clubs, and dance parties. Let’s make a difference together!
