About Me

Chandigarh kid who chose
HTML over FIFA

Born in Chandigarh, India ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ. Proper North Indian vibes. Moved to Aotearoa New Zealand in my early 20s โ€” packed my whole life into two suitcases and called it a main character move.

At 15, I was that kid who thought HTML was more fun than FIFA. By 16, a tech blog running AdSense was making real money โ€” all self-taught through YouTube and curiosity.

These days I'm a happily married dad living in NZ, still chasing ideas at odd hours, still building random tools, still curious, still vibing. ๐Ÿฅ‚

The Journey

How it all started

// age_15 โ†’ 2012
First website sold ๐Ÿ’ธ
While friends played FIFA, I was building HTML templates and actually making money. Entirely self-taught โ€” no school, no courses.
// age_16 โ†’ 2013
Tech blog + AdSense ๐Ÿ“
Launched a self-hosted tech blog running Google AdSense. Felt like a startup founder in a bedroom. Made real money.
// early_20s
Moved to Aotearoa ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฟ
Two suitcases, one-way ticket. Studied Business & Leadership. Delivered pizzas. Kept building on the side whenever life got quiet.
// mid_20s
Married the right person ๐Ÿ’
Best decision I ever made. She makes space for the late-night rabbit holes and half-baked ideas. That kind of support doesn't go unnoticed.
