After years of learning from my father, I took the plunge into entrepreneurship, launching a papad (crispy Indian flatbread) export business in Grade 9. Through research, I found a gap in the market and developed the product that bridged this gap. This project gave me invaluable insights into product development, business operations and product marketing.
My internship at Ferrari was nothing short of remarkable. Over eight modules, I learned mechanical and electrical engineering while contributing to Ferrari’s exploration of electric cars. Our team successfully built a prototype for transitioning a petrol-based car to an electric model. This hands-on experience in automotive innovation was a dream come true.
My research on omni-bots required mastering advanced mathematics, including vectors and calculus. It was a challenging yet rewarding journey that led to the publication of my work in the National High School Journal of Science (NHSJS). The experience honed my problem-solving, researching, and analytical skills.
Participating in Brown College’s Junior CEO program taught me valuable lessons in marketing and product development. Alongside my partner, I successfully pitched a product to a panel of executives, receiving critical feedback that later helped me market my papad business.
