Sr. Architect (JavaScript)

Accomplished Director in International Sales, Marketing, Customer Service & Training. Known as the go-to person if you want something done. Called the ‘Tracie’ effect by CEO’s.

Being an Operations Manager and C-Level Executive is exactly what you’d think it’s like. 

I’m the person that everyone wants to know but nobody wants to be. If you want to get something done, you come to me – everyone knows that! 

Yet no one wants to have to do what I do because of the amount of personal time and effort that goes into being everyone’s go-to.  

Luckily, I’m passionate with staying organised and making everyone’s life easier. It brings such a genuine joy to my heart to take the burden off others shoulders, and I always do anything I can to enhance that. 

There aren’t many things that can grow a company the way that trust and dependability can, and I pride myself in being so dedicated to both.

I believe Logic has 2 parts one part will always fail you.

The probability of success is only 50% :)
So I believe in magic ! 

What do I love, its storytelling especially as an instrument for change & transformation.

Having failed several times in life, I have discovered the more you fail the more you succeed.

Went through 3 clinical depressions in my life one of which almost killed me, Survived a life threatening accident when I was a kid, Closed my last 2 startups.

Lived in a slum in Delhi for almost 2 years in the nineties. It completely changed my world view. 

I was confused most of the time in my life till someone asked me this question:

"Are you seeking clarity or confusion?"

Yes, sadly I realised like so many around the world I was seeking confusion :)
 
Here is what my story has been:

1. Nobody to Somebody : I wanted to become someone, but that was not me that I became
2. Somebody to Nobody : I left my job and quit, in an attempt to discover myself 
3. Nobody to Somebody: This was the first time I did not want to become someone else but myself, and I finally became myself

I must confess I wasted almost my entire life in the first two phases.

I have discovered my life purpose : Transforming 5 billion humans by 2030. Have you?

I realise, I am but an instrument or a medium.

My weaknesses: (I have several)
1. I am half blind in reality this helps me try different things & take risks because I cant see anything in either case:). Also makes me realise the difference between sight & vision.
2.  I am intentionally deaf to what people say, this helps me live without fear.
3.  I am also forgetful, so I dont remember the past :) Everyday is a new day.

I am average, it took me a while to realise this, but I will never give up on my dreams or on myself.

I hope you are not giving up on yourself.  

Please don't, even if things are not going right, 
The world needs you.
There are millions in this world who can do with your help.

P.S: Startups are designed to fail, Entrepreneurs are not.
