The Beginning

From Campus to Startup

Top 0.4%

Engineering entrance exam in Karnataka, 2018

College Campus

BMS College of Engineering, Class of 2022

My entrepreneurial journey began in the very first week of college. I dove straight into the startup ecosystem, interning at a young company where I wore multiple hats.

From Event management to marketing strategy to logistics I learned the fundamentals of execution and getting things done in the real world.

First Venture

Kaiser Elektrik

Reimagining electric vehicle energy systems during second year of college.

Kaiser Elektrik Team

The Vision

Increase energy density and decrease power density in electric vehicles through innovative battery management systems.

Built a dedicated engineering team

Designed complete chassis from ground up

Research on battery management systems

Key Learning

After six months of intensive work, I learned a crucial lesson about the gap between vision and execution. Without proper research experience, technical skills, and funding, some ideas need their time.

But more importantly, this experience revealed a critical pain point: finding the right team at the right time is incredibly difficult for students and entrepreneurs.

Second Venture

I took the courageous risk of not applying for campus placements and followed my passion to startup.
