About Me: My Path in the Digital Landscape 🚀

The Genesis (2016)
My journey into the digital world began in 2016 when affordable internet became widely available in India. I was in 9th grade and, with a passion for technology, started exploring different areas. What began as a hobby soon turned into an exciting adventure, where I created over 250 videos on my YouTube channel, all while managing my studies.

Exploring Blogging (2018)
In 2018, I joined the Diploma program at one of Maharashtra's prestigious institutes. Around the same time, I shifted from creating videos to blogging, turning my content into written articles. I began with Google’s Blogger but soon moved to WordPress for its advanced capabilities. A key moment came when I had the chance to build a business website using WordPress, despite a tough 7-day deadline. This experience pushed me into a period of intense self-learning in WordPress and business website development, all while continuing my education.

The Birth of WebiSharp and Growth (2019 - 2020)
Successfully completing my first WordPress project led to the creation of WebiSharp. While still pursuing my Diploma, I began leading a team of freelancers to deliver meaningful projects for clients across various fields. A major milestone came when I worked with one of India’s renowned YouTubers, Anmol Jaiswal, also known as "Indian Backpacker," on his venture Gamesouk.in, an online store for custom-built PCs and accessories. This large-scale project taught me valuable lessons about managing high-traffic websites and handling concurrent users.
While building WebiSharp, my journey extended beyond just websites and tech, as I began focusing on finance, operations, business strategy, sales, marketing, and even the legal aspects of running a business. In 2020, amid the global pandemic, I enrolled in the Digital Deepak Internship Program, which significantly enhanced my skills and broadened my professional network. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, I balanced my academic responsibilities while actively participating in webinars and sharing my knowledge with others. This period of growth played a key role in shaping my professional development, allowing me to build new connections and refine my expertise in digital marketing and business strategy.

Completing Diploma & Growing WebiSharp (2021-2022)
In 2021-2022, I completed my Diploma and began my Bachelor's in Technology. At the same time, I focused on growing WebiSharp, working with over 30 clients from different industries and enriching my professional experience. This was also the time when I stopped my initial journey of content creation and dedicated myself full-time to WebiSharp. In August 2021, I registered WebiSharp as a proprietorship firm, obtained a GST number, and completed all the legal formalities of starting a business for the first time. It was an exciting experience to navigate this process while continuing to explore finance and startups. This was also the first time I filed my income tax return, which sparked my growing interest in finance.

Managing WebiSharp & Exploring Finance (2023)
In 2023, while managing and building WebiSharp alongside my Bachelor's studies, my interest in finance, which began to grow during 2021-2022, led me to explore various avenues within the field. I developed a deep interest in personal finance and the stock market, starting to invest in mutual funds, direct stocks, and even trying my hand at index derivatives trading. I considered pursuing a full-time career in finance and thought about taking the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) exam. However, after careful consideration and discussions with several finance professionals, I decided to keep finance as a personal interest, focusing on managing my personal or family portfolios rather than pursuing it as a full-time career. This choice allowed me to continue with my existing work while nurturing my passion for finance.

Exploring Product Management (2024)
I completed my Bachelor's in Technology in June 2024 and initially began managing WebiSharp full-time. However, I developed a keen interest in product management, particularly in the software industry. Realizing that the best way to learn product management was to work at a fast-growing company, I began exploring Associate Product Manager roles. In October 2024, I joined Brainstorm Force, the company behind popular WordPress products like Astra, Spectra, Sure Family of Products, and many more which are used by millions of websites worldwide.
While working at Brainstorm Force, I continue to manage WebiSharp part-time on weekends, leading my team and ensuring we deliver great web and digital solutions for our clients, all with full disclosures.

Throughout my life, I have been raised to do everything ethically, legally, and as transparently as possible. My focus has always been on prioritizing ethical practices over merely making more money.
