Story of a Middle-class boy!
I’m from a middle-class family and as you can see a picture from my office at The DMZ, Toronto Downtown working on my project. It was a quite challenging journey from finance, support and many more.
I wrote about important questions. I believe everyone has to answer — What do you do, Why, What makes you unique, What do you know better than others and how can you help society with your knowledge and experience.
WHAT I DO:
- I do web development, machine learning, innovate software product and help companies to build a sustainable & profitable business. I take responsibilities, lead teams and very important I do move fast!
- I built a product from scratch and converted an R&D IoT project opportunity to the business, having 8 products, the Android/Ios app, Alexa and Google assistant skill in 2 years along with an amazing team of 6 people.
- I’m working on a very innovative product which helps people to communicate better. I started a project from a basic designed frontend and converted into the full scalable application with designing and development of the architecture of the system, frontend, backend, database design, cloud, and machine learning.
WHY IT MATTERS:
- In today’s rapidly growing technology market, you should have knowledge in various segments.
- I can get things quickly and implement it. I never neglect an opportunity that challenges me.
WHAT MAKES ME UNIQUE:
- I started my career at the age of 18. I initiated technical clubs, events and lead a team for the international event. I taught more than 200 students, lead a team of more than 100 members.
- I failed yes, I failed twice, but I learned from my mistakes. I never said it’s impossible to do it, sometimes it just takes more time.
- I’ve developed a unique sense of leadership, how to adopt an environment, help people and create something helpful for society with innovation and technology.
- I’m working an average 15 hours a day from my college days to build, develop and innovate with technology to help myself and society at the better place.
MY STORY:
- Having spent the past many years, both learning and creating my #PersonalBrand in the technology area. I help companies by providing my knowledge and experience to scale and build products either from scratch or help as a consultant.
- I came from middle-class family background and the first engineer with a Master’s degree.
- I moved to Canada in 2018 for my Masters and had a Software Job on the 3rd day in the new country.
- I have a unique perspective and passion for the technology, voice and software development along with the importance of Personal Branding in today’s world.
