About

Desmond Tutu once wisely said that “there is only one way to eat an elephant: a bite at a time.” What he meant by this is that everything in life that seems daunting, overwhelming, and even impossible can be accomplished gradually by taking on just a little at a time. I've been on the same pursuit, creating a better and an equitable world using my limited knowledge, skills and efforts to serve as a small, yet strong cog in the big wheel. I started my career early with a tech startup in Grade 11 (2010), growing Indian and overseas clientele, providing solutions ranging from custom web applications, content management systems and service design. Between 2015-2018, completed a cross country cycling expedition and a bike journey sizing thrice the earth's circumference, both of which were registered in the Limca Book of Records and Guinness Book of World Records respectively, also giving me an opportunity to share my experience on many reputed platforms like TEDx, India Bike Week, IISc, CSIR-CDRI, UP100 etc. While these expeditions brought in immense exposure of the country, people and culture, the reflections also highlighted the overwhelming array of problems the nation was grappling with. However, they reinforced an unyielding belief in the transformative power of technology, and the later years (2018-2024) saw me working extensively with multiple state governments, PPP/ private organizations to leverage the power of technology to address significant gaps in the education and health sector. Currently, I've completed my MBA from IIM, Lucknow driven by a strong vision to make a meaningful impact in tackling some of the toughest challenges that the business world faces today. My goal is to bring real value to the last-mile person, ensuring that every effort makes a genuine difference for those who need it the most. I’m passionate about making businesses more human-centered, where customer needs and impactful solutions take the lead. On a personal front, I value humility and courage the most, for it's rightly said - 'Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick.' (Terence McKenna)
