How brilliant a student were you in college?

I was an average student.

Did your college help you to achieve your career goals?

My family members, who are ex-students of this college, advised me to take admission in SP college. The faculties here really shaped us to grow as responsible citizens. During college I learnt to deal with handling pressure and public relationships through various activities like inter-college quiz competitions and annual function days. College days have always been interesting and fun.

From college to TCS, how did that journey unfold?

I worked with my dad in our family business and later, started working in the IT sector. Today, I work with TCS, Hinjewadi, which is a dream company to work for.

My my family business hit a low and hence, I started working for the IT sector. Any career graph is all about ensuring financial security and taking care of my family.

What are your future plans?

I want to start my own business - a fast-moving consumer goods company, for which, I have already started working on it..
