You miss 100% of the shots you don't take!!

I have always believed in the power of getting early into action, stepping out of my comfort zone, and trying new challenges. I have seen people spending way too much time on planning, like trying to time the market before investing, waiting for the right time to start etc., not realizing that there's never a right time. It's all about starting today and being consistent in your efforts. Sharing a quote really close to my heart "A year from now, you will wish you had started today".

Born and brought up in a middle-class family, I realized the importance of hard work pretty early in life. I did well enough in high school and made it to one of the best engineering colleges in India: BITS Pilani. Those four years at BITS have been some of the best years of my life so far. I was surrounded by some of the brightest minds, which helped me become a better version of myself.

I started my software development journey with Nutanix and then moved to Microsoft, before joining DevRev. I realized pretty early that I enjoy building products that can bring a positive change in people's life. When I got to know about DevRev, it was a no-brainer. Building a product that is going to make the lives of millions of people out there so much simpler sounded really exciting & fulfilling and I immediately decided to join the flock. I'm really excited to work with such an amazing team here and looking forward to what the future holds for us!
