About
While my under graduation curriculum has introduced me to wide assortment of design fundamentals and topics, I haven’t restricted my viewpoint. I started studying stock exchanges at the age of 16 and began making speculations since my adolescence. Scoring my first job as a marketing assistant at Urban Life Ventures, a sister company of Amanora City, awarded with the 'Best Township of India' in the year 2013 by NDTV at the age of 17, was an accomplishment for me I cannot overlook, where even several MBA's had gone after a similar job. I began as an assistant for 2 months just as a marketing personnel, however now at the age of 20 after certain advancements, I am at present the acting Head of Media and Marketing Relations at Urban Life Ventures. Beginning as the youngest employee in the organization I have figured out how to defeat various measures of issues looked by a group and also how to control my team through the snags. I led my team for an advertisement campaign for which I got the chance of designing the first page of one of India's most trustworthy newspapers - Pune Times (A supplement of 'The Times of India'), Sakaal, Vaastu and two or three others at the age of 19. Right now, I have my designs on very nearly 10-15 billboards over the prime areas of Pune and the campaigns led by me are as fruitful and diligent as Thomas Edison who failed multiple times yet never quit until he achieved something out of it. I have additionally functioned as a Product Design Advisor to 'ORACURA - India's first Water Flosser Company' after an internship in sales and marketing for 2 months. Aside from my expert profession life I was a member of the Installations Team at Mood Indigo, IIT Bombay (Asia's biggest student festival) representing SID. As Mahatma Gandhi rightly said “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.”, volunteering is something that props me up. I have filled in as an instructor for 'Teach For India' to teach the government school students about computerized innovation. Serving as the Prefect of my alma mater made me mindful of numerous student related issues and furthermore how to locate a positive way out.
