Could you give a brief overview about your career journey?

I have been an entrepreneur much before I understood what it meant to be one. My professional journey began in my second year of BTech when I had spotted a pain point.

My college had abruptly stopped selling textbook-sets along with the tuition, leaving my juniors scrambling. Fortunately, I had still kept my entire Year-1 text-bookset in my hostel room and I offered to sell it at half the original price to one of my juniors at the girl's hostel.
