Me in 10 seconds
I’m a builder at heart and a tech pragmatist. I have the grit to take on hard goals — whether it’s running marathonsRan my first half-marathon in 2006 in Mumbai; followed with 2 full marathons in Mumbai and 3 half-marathons. Kaveri Trail Marathon has been my favorite course., vipassana meditationCompleted a 10 day vipassana retreat in Igatpuri in 2003. Have continued my practice at a personal level., long-distance swimmingLearnt to swim at 40; have tried open water swimming for 1.5k, writing codeBetween 2006-2015 I won 7 hackathons (with 0 hours of sleep); this was before hackathons became hiring events and Huberman launched a podcast., or bootstrappingI bootstrapped an ad-tech platform and grew it to a 140+ team (80+ engineering) staying profitable without venture funding a company for 13 years.
