life story
🌍 -18 ~ born, brought up in Ludhiana, Punjab ~ growing up, school, party, fun, yada yada ~ honestly I don't remember much & I think it's for the best, hehe.
started my career journey at 19.
went to Vancouver to study business, but 4 months in, i realised ~ i learn by doing, i finished my degree fast & jumped into the real world.
since then, it’s been all hands-on experiments (fail-fast mentality) - some worked, most didn’t. each one taught me something meaningful, and brought more clarity to what I want to build.
Entrepreneurship Attempts
Kyra Cosmetics ~ bootstrapped D2C brand. hit breakeven, then lost money on ads, shut it. learned to take risks & build solo.
Pineapple Kitchen ~ built a premium cookware brand. learned most indians don’t cook (they have help), and those who do rarely pay for premium.
FTW Club ~ longevity club for startup founders. got 4 paying users, but behavior change is a tough business.
Jobs
Poker Dealer ~ saw how people wear greed on their face.
Door-to-door Sales ~ rejection every day. built thick skin.
Founding Team, Auto Startup ~ built a car sales platform. took it to $50K profit in 10 mos.
Sales ~ GM ~ closed contracts with big names ~ Translink.
Founding Team, Ripen ~ led GTM, community, partnerships. raised $550K but shut down. learned ~ solve one real problem at a time.
Founding Team ~ AI Startup ~ built & marketed influencer automation platform, learned how to build & sell AI software.
Projects led by curiosity
What’s Cooking? ~ loved cooking, built a yt channel in COVID - learned video, editing, growth.
CEO of My Health ~ built a full-stack health protocol, tracked everything, dropped to 5% fat, gained 35kg muscle, hit peak performance.
Always Young Media ~ played with GenAI: cloned my avatar, launched a podcast, hit 7M+ views. got deep into content, repurposing & distribution.
every phase has helped me understand people, systems, & what it really takes to build.
the dots will connect someday.
~ until then, i’ll keep showing up, building, & never settling.
