ABOUT ME: MY PATH IN THE DIGITAL LANDSCAPE 🚀

THE GENESIS (2016)
MY JOURNEY INTO THE DIGITAL WORLD BEGAN IN 2016 WHEN AFFORDABLE INTERNET BECAME
WIDELY AVAILABLE IN INDIA. I WAS IN 9TH GRADE AND, WITH A PASSION FOR
TECHNOLOGY, STARTED EXPLORING DIFFERENT AREAS. WHAT BEGAN AS A HOBBY SOON TURNED
INTO AN EXCITING ADVENTURE, WHERE I CREATED OVER 250 VIDEOS ON MY YOUTUBE
CHANNEL, ALL WHILE MANAGING MY STUDIES.

EXPLORING BLOGGING (2018)
IN 2018, I JOINED THE DIPLOMA PROGRAM AT ONE OF MAHARASHTRA'S PRESTIGIOUS
INSTITUTES. AROUND THE SAME TIME, I SHIFTED FROM CREATING VIDEOS TO BLOGGING,
TURNING MY CONTENT INTO WRITTEN ARTICLES. I BEGAN WITH GOOGLE’S BLOGGER BUT SOON
MOVED TO WORDPRESS FOR ITS ADVANCED CAPABILITIES. A KEY MOMENT CAME WHEN I HAD
THE CHANCE TO BUILD A BUSINESS WEBSITE USING WORDPRESS, DESPITE A TOUGH 7-DAY
DEADLINE. THIS EXPERIENCE PUSHED ME INTO A PERIOD OF INTENSE SELF-LEARNING IN
WORDPRESS AND BUSINESS WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT, ALL WHILE CONTINUING MY EDUCATION.

THE BIRTH OF WEBISHARP AND GROWTH (2019 - 2020)
SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETING MY FIRST WORDPRESS PROJECT LED TO THE CREATION OF
WEBISHARP. WHILE STILL PURSUING MY DIPLOMA, I BEGAN LEADING A TEAM OF
FREELANCERS TO DELIVER MEANINGFUL PROJECTS FOR CLIENTS ACROSS VARIOUS FIELDS. A
MAJOR MILESTONE CAME WHEN I WORKED WITH ONE OF INDIA’S RENOWNED YOUTUBERS, ANMOL
JAISWAL, ALSO KNOWN AS "INDIAN BACKPACKER," ON HIS VENTURE GAMESOUK.IN, AN
ONLINE STORE FOR CUSTOM-BUILT PCS AND ACCESSORIES. THIS LARGE-SCALE PROJECT
TAUGHT ME VALUABLE LESSONS ABOUT MANAGING HIGH-TRAFFIC WEBSITES AND HANDLING
CONCURRENT USERS.
WHILE BUILDING WEBISHARP, MY JOURNEY EXTENDED BEYOND JUST WEBSITES AND TECH, AS
I BEGAN FOCUSING ON FINANCE, OPERATIONS, BUSINESS STRATEGY, SALES, MARKETING,
AND EVEN THE LEGAL ASPECTS OF RUNNING A BUSINESS. IN 2020, AMID THE GLOBAL
PANDEMIC, I ENROLLED IN THE DIGITAL DEEPAK INTERNSHIP PROGRAM, WHICH
SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCED MY SKILLS AND BROADENED MY PROFESSIONAL NETWORK. DESPITE
THE CHALLENGES OF THE PANDEMIC, I BALANCED MY ACADEMIC RESPONSIBILITIES WHILE
ACTIVELY PARTICIPATING IN WEBINARS AND SHARING MY KNOWLEDGE WITH OTHERS. THIS
PERIOD OF GROWTH PLAYED A KEY ROLE IN SHAPING MY PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT,
ALLOWING ME TO BUILD NEW CONNECTIONS AND REFINE MY EXPERTISE IN DIGITAL
MARKETING AND BUSINESS STRATEGY.

COMPLETING DIPLOMA & GROWING WEBISHARP (2021-2022)
IN 2021-2022, I COMPLETED MY DIPLOMA AND BEGAN MY BACHELOR'S IN TECHNOLOGY. AT
THE SAME TIME, I FOCUSED ON GROWING WEBISHARP, WORKING WITH OVER 30 CLIENTS FROM
DIFFERENT INDUSTRIES AND ENRICHING MY PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE. THIS WAS ALSO THE
TIME WHEN I STOPPED MY INITIAL JOURNEY OF CONTENT CREATION AND DEDICATED MYSELF
FULL-TIME TO WEBISHARP. IN AUGUST 2021, I REGISTERED WEBISHARP AS A
PROPRIETORSHIP FIRM, OBTAINED A GST NUMBER, AND COMPLETED ALL THE LEGAL
FORMALITIES OF STARTING A BUSINESS FOR THE FIRST TIME. IT WAS AN EXCITING
EXPERIENCE TO NAVIGATE THIS PROCESS WHILE CONTINUING TO EXPLORE FINANCE AND
STARTUPS. THIS WAS ALSO THE FIRST TIME I FILED MY INCOME TAX RETURN, WHICH
SPARKED MY GROWING INTEREST IN FINANCE.

MANAGING WEBISHARP & EXPLORING FINANCE (2023)
IN 2023, WHILE MANAGING AND BUILDING WEBISHARP ALONGSIDE MY BACHELOR'S STUDIES,
MY INTEREST IN FINANCE, WHICH BEGAN TO GROW DURING 2021-2022, LED ME TO EXPLORE
VARIOUS AVENUES WITHIN THE FIELD. I DEVELOPED A DEEP INTEREST IN PERSONAL
FINANCE AND THE STOCK MARKET, STARTING TO INVEST IN MUTUAL FUNDS, DIRECT STOCKS,
AND EVEN TRYING MY HAND AT INDEX DERIVATIVES TRADING. I CONSIDERED PURSUING A
FULL-TIME CAREER IN FINANCE AND THOUGHT ABOUT TAKING THE CFA (CHARTERED
FINANCIAL ANALYST) EXAM. HOWEVER, AFTER CAREFUL CONSIDERATION AND DISCUSSIONS
WITH SEVERAL FINANCE PROFESSIONALS, I DECIDED TO KEEP FINANCE AS A PERSONAL
INTEREST, FOCUSING ON MANAGING MY PERSONAL OR FAMILY PORTFOLIOS RATHER THAN
PURSUING IT AS A FULL-TIME CAREER. THIS CHOICE ALLOWED ME TO CONTINUE WITH MY
EXISTING WORK WHILE NURTURING MY PASSION FOR FINANCE.

EXPLORING PRODUCT MANAGEMENT (2024)
I COMPLETED MY BACHELOR'S IN TECHNOLOGY IN JUNE 2024 AND INITIALLY BEGAN
MANAGING WEBISHARP FULL-TIME. HOWEVER, I DEVELOPED A KEEN INTEREST IN PRODUCT
MANAGEMENT, PARTICULARLY IN THE SOFTWARE INDUSTRY. REALIZING THAT THE BEST WAY
TO LEARN PRODUCT MANAGEMENT WAS TO WORK AT A FAST-GROWING COMPANY, I BEGAN
EXPLORING ASSOCIATE PRODUCT MANAGER ROLES. IN OCTOBER 2024, I JOINED BRAINSTORM
FORCE, THE COMPANY BEHIND POPULAR WORDPRESS PRODUCTS LIKE ASTRA, SPECTRA, SURE
FAMILY OF PRODUCTS, AND MANY MORE WHICH ARE USED BY MILLIONS OF WEBSITES
WORLDWIDE.
WHILE WORKING AT BRAINSTORM FORCE, I CONTINUE TO MANAGE WEBISHARP PART-TIME ON
WEEKENDS, LEADING MY TEAM AND ENSURING WE DELIVER GREAT WEB AND DIGITAL
SOLUTIONS FOR OUR CLIENTS, ALL WITH FULL DISCLOSURES.

THROUGHOUT MY LIFE, I HAVE BEEN RAISED TO DO EVERYTHING ETHICALLY, LEGALLY, AND
AS TRANSPARENTLY AS POSSIBLE. MY FOCUS HAS ALWAYS BEEN ON PRIORITIZING ETHICAL
PRACTICES OVER MERELY MAKING MORE MONEY.

PERSONAL FINANCE, AND CAPITAL MARKETS.
