"Since my childhood I had in mind that at the end I have to run my own company. We had our own Designer studio. So, I always wanted to get into Business but didn’t know Entrepreneur was the word at that time.
I did my graduation in fashion designing but the time I completed my degree the first lock down started. So, jobs were out of reach in that field. Along with my degree I did a crash course of Digital marketing, at the time of the pandemic this came in handy. I got placed in a DM company as a media planner. I saw the potential there. Unfortunately, a second wave of pandemic arrived, and I lost my job. At the same time, I had to come across some personal issues which led me to depression and anxiety. My close friend helped me to get out of it. Whose name also happened to be Harsh*th. From the time I entered the marketing field I wanted a start up of my own in this field. Harsh*th pushed me to start a company and now here we are as partners.
Well, at the beginning the most important task was to form a team. We wanted someone who was equally interested as us and also, we were not from coding background finding a developer was also a big task for us. We started our office from my room, struggling for the internet and network cause the place I stay has no fiber net and the network was worse. Building a team online and motivating them to work.
The biggest challenge for me was the time I went through depression and anxiety. Most people won’t understand what depression or anxiety is. I locked myself in my room, I couldn’t face the crowd. Couldn’t tell my mom how I feel. Panic attacks every now and then, all I could see was people’s betrayal. I was about to give up on everything. However,my family and friends helped me to recover from this.
As a designer, designed for Pankuri Gidwani (miss India 2016) and Nathaniya for mysore fashion week for which won the best designer award. Then I did a glam fashion show. I was awarded as best designer of the year."
