🦄 Founder - GreetsApp | Marketing at Consensys | Ex Management Consultant at Accenture | I write about entrepreneurship, marketing and web3.

I grew up in a small sleepy town in Northern India in humble settings. With electricity blackouts for almost 12 hours a day, it was easy to let your mind wander, be curious, be experimental and inventive. Even our analogue radio was a great source of R&D. In India we have a very inspiring word called “Jugaad”, it translates to something like "using bits and bobs around you to invent things that make life a little bit easier”. 

The best partner of innovation is technology. Our first curriculum in 3rd grade was to learn programming in BASIC. By 8th grade I learnt Databases and C/C++ by end of high school. Having studied in a boarding school meant I learned the art of negotiation rather well. It also meant learning to stand your ground and share and work together. 

Having a father for a business man I suppose, also inclined me to constantly think about new means to grow and diversify our small business. Watching him and helping him manage his business taught me how to solve problems and manage constant chaos and ambiguity and to be resilient in executing with limited resources or to pick yourself up after failures. 

As I got to my early 20s, after finishing bachelors I took up a corporate job, somewhere always with the ambition to become an entrepreneur. I started as a developer and used different platforms to create smart solutions for multiple industries. But the inventive problem-solving-curious mind wanted to get closer to the problems we all face than sit behind a desk and write code. 

I moved to the US in 2009 and soon after forayed into management consulting. That was enriching in so many ways, because I could touch different industries and businesses across the globe with like-minded individuals. It gave me the opportunity to solve real world problems by bringing in the new tech. 

A combination of all these wholesome life experiences across I’ve had over the years has only fueled my hunger to continue solving problems, create more jobs and create better lives in our rather fragile world.

9 months unemployed. Savings gone. Family worried.

Sending 20 LinkedIn Easy Apply applications per day.

Results: automated rejections, most of the time.

Linkedin Easy Apply is where resumes go to die.

Companies get 500+ applications on those posts because it takes zero effort to apply.

Start targeting 5 companies per day instead of 20.

Find the actual hiring manager on LinkedIn.

Send a real message about why you want that specific role.

Also stop using LinkedIn as your main source. 

The quality of responses will change.

Fewer applications, but actual humans will read them.

The difference isn't skills on your resume.

It's getting your application in front of someone who actually looks at it.

Volume doesn't matter if you're shouting into a void.

The term "entry-level" has become completely meaningless.

I just saw a posting: Junior role, 3+ years experience, proficiency in 5 tools, must work independently from day one.

Salary barely covers rent.

That's not entry-level.

That's "we want someone senior but we don't want to pay them."

This is why new grads with solid skills can't break in.

Companies are describing their dream employee, slapping an entry-level tag on it, and offering $45K.

Meanwhile, actual entry-level candidates are being told they need experience to get experience.

It's a broken loop.

If you're hiring: entry-level means you're willing to train someone.

If you need 3 years of experience and independent work from day one, that's mid-level at minimum.

Pay accordingly.

If you're job searching: apply anyway.

Half these "requirements" are wish lists, not dealbreakers.

Make them tell you no.

I am an advocate for alternative learning, creator of self-learning platforms, and mother to Adi, a young builder who has been learning independently since the age of six.

My journey into alternative education began during the pandemic, when I realized that traditional schooling doesn’t fit every child. 

I started exploring self-learning approaches, experimenting with project-based learning, and using technology and AI as tools for creativity and critical thinking. 

Over time, learning became a way of living for our family.

Today, I write and build around the future of learning and living with AI — how young people can grow into creators, entrepreneurs, and thinkers who shape their own paths. 

Through learninwithak and Selfo.app, I help my son document his learning journey and inspire other young learners to design their own.

I am also a growth partner at CareerKit.me and Hello Builder — platforms that encourage young people to live skill-driven, independent lives and connect with mentors who help them grow with purpose.

For me, education is no longer about following a fixed path — it’s about discovering your rhythm, creating what matters to you, and learning in the flow of life.

I write to share stories, ideas, and reflections that question what learning means in a world shaped by AI, creativity, and freedom.
