Hey everyone! I'm
Sanjay
, a Product-person/ designer/ artist / developer from
India
and I build and hack many different
projects
. Currently, I'm working on a
fintech app. Here's my
Story!
When I was younger I spent 3 years in
Japan
that shaped my
Curiousity!
Here i had fun exploring new topics with
programming
small games being passion, leading me to pursue
engineering
.
Driven by my love for creating, I delved into building prototypes and
products using various
materials
. From hacking projects to exploring new ideas, I've always sought to
merge form and function. Early on, I combined my
artistic sensibilities
with my technical skills to bring concepts to
life
. This fusion of creativity and engineering fuels my passion for
building unique and impactful products.
(like the wool pen
).
I then progressed to building RC controlled planes, gliders, boats,
and other
projects
. With the introduction of
Arduino and Raspberry Pis
, I further delved into robotics and even showcased
one of my robots
at a
Maker Faire
. That inturn got me an Internship to build a
bigger
security robot
!
Taking the saved money from the internship , I ventured into
entrepreneurship, to retrofit old cars
to electric
. This was my first attempt at a startup. Additionally, I delved into
the challenge of building my own
axial flux permanent magnet BLDC motor
to gain IP
(some docs)
Despite my enthusiasm and efforts, the initial startup didn't quite go
as planned..This experience led me to become a
Python developer
at another startup building cool software products, after which I then
joined
Deloitte.
Realizing I need more time to experiment, I jumped into an MBA program
(at MICA)
and released my first
full app
to production !
(on the playstore)
. After this I got lost in the world of
web3
! Participating in multiple hackathons with a friend gave me the
confidence to launch my own apps. We made stuff ranging from
games
, to
NFts
, to
edtech X smart contract appX DAOs .
Getting back from the highs of 2021 , i tried my second attempt at an
edtech startup i made to help Bschool teachers with their workflows
using AI
(collabdocs)
. But relaizing that it might not work well , i
pivoted to try and
make app for financial Edtech. To finally building my Current Social
fintech app
!
Other than building and hacking products i thoroughly enjoy going on
very long walks and reading loads of Manga
Manga
. I also tend to spend a lot of time exploring weird
corners of the
Internet! Also binge loads of
twitter/ Xs.
