An Introduction
My journey began at a career seminar in Shiv Nadar School where a confident young man said something so powerful, it became my identity.
He said, "Follow Your Dreams".
Naturally, we were thinking of glamorous careers, and I too had decided to become a musician. My parents were shaken to their core by the fact that I wanted to pursue a non-conventional career path; however, deep inside, I wanted to prove myself right.
Our student received global ABRSM topper award along with a 100% music scholarship at King's College, London
With that, I started my online academy, and within a year, I scaled it to a 7-figure business with over 100 students and 15 teachers who are an active part of the academy.
​But in my last year of college, I decided to to give the Common Aptitude Test (CAT) and ended up scoring horribly. With my ego deeply bruised, I gave a second attempt and scored a lot more than I had anticipated and got calls from top IMs. It was during this time that I started reflecting deeply to understand what I truly wanted to do next.
So I went back to what I knew the best: teaching! I started by posting informational content online, all the while running my academy, and got a great response by my audience; moreover, I was called to 5 different colleges where I interacted with students and finally took the decision of pursuing content creation and running my academy to keep providing quality mentorship to all students!
​
Currently, I speak about the following topics:
- Personal Development
- Career Growth
- Public Speaking
- Communication Skills
- How to be your BEST version!
