ARP | 2023 | RP
I am a driven and passionate individual with a strong academic background in engineering from the esteemed Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. With a natural inclination towards entrepreneurship, I have actively pursued my passion for building innovative products and startups. My latest venture, Avalipt Studio, a luxury fashion brand, has been a resounding success. As a co-founder and current CTO of the company, I was instrumental in driving sales of over one crore rupees in just a year, with a customer base of over 2000 satisfied patrons. Aside from Avalipt, I have also founded Edopt, a crowdfunding platform aimed at sponsoring education fees for underprivileged students from poor families. I am proud to have sponsored the education of over 18 students with fees of up to 5 Lakh rupees. My experience in building successful startups and products has given me an in-depth understanding of the challenges and intricacies of the business world. I have a keen eye for detail, a problem-solving mindset, and the ability to motivate and lead teams towards achieving a common goal.
