Growth Strategy:

Team is just watching me and I should be always up and focused to keep company’s levels up.

Job Profile:

At the onset, I’ve donned many hats from being a strategist, designer, developer, advertiser, seller, answering customer’s phone calls to a team player and a leader. All these roles I played enabled me to emerge stronger as a businessman and execute things in a better manner.

Role Model:

My father is my greatest role model and a huge source of inspiration. His dedication towards his business, aspired me to take up this venture. I also firmly believe that I get to learn something from every person I meet and every situation I face.

The Journey So Far:

Being very passionate and hawk-eyed about technologies, I completed my diploma in Multimedia soon after my graduation and entered into the world of Web designing and development to put my creativity and designing skills into practice.

After a brief stint in a couple of MNC’s as a designer, UI developer and a project manager, it soon dawned on to me that I wasn’t making any great impact on the business front, which I am greatly attracted to. I realized that I will not be able to grow or do anything worthwhile if I continue to work within the comfort zone
It took great endurance, dedication, hard work and above all patience to sustain and remain successful in this highly competitive. Through self confidence, self reliance and rigorous efforts I now see my dreams turning into reality.

Though very young and new to business when I began, I had an intuitive business acumen that kept me goal focused and on a profitable path.

Advice For New Professionals:

Always believe in your potential, seek opportunities from the adversities you face. Don’t ever give up in your efforts in attaining your goal. As in the words of Henry Ford, founder of Ford Motor Company, "When everything seems to be going against you, still cling on, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it”

Other Thoughts:
