About his Family

My father was a businessman, dealing in textiles for 40+ years, while my mother is a homemaker. My father passed away in June 2023, and currently, my mother and I reside in Ichalkaranji, a town known for its textile industry in Maharashtra, where we own a textile factory.

I have an elder sister who is a divorcee and works with Bakliwal Tutorials in Pune.

I have a younger brother who is a CA, CS, and runs his own practice in Pune. He is married and his wife is a CA too, practicing in the same office. They were blessed with a daughter in October 2022. 

We do not believe in matching Kundli, but you're free to do so.

Occupation

I have been freelancing since 2016 full-time, catering to clients in the US, Europe, Australia, and Singapore. I specialize in software development, SaaS consulting, Business Intelligence and Insights, Automation, Systems and Processes. My work necessitates learning new things every now and then, and therefore, learning forms a big part of my day, every day.

I intend to work independently in the same setup, unless an exciting opportunity comes by, in India or abroad. The nature of my work is location-independent, and if need be, I don't mind moving to a different city where it's easier for my partner to pursue her career.

Earlier, I worked with ZS Associates, a marketing and sales consulting firm, for 3.5 years (post-MBA) in Pune and New Delhi. Before my MBA, I worked with Cisco Systems for 3 years as a Software Engineer.
