Who is Saad ?

Let me introduce you to someone truly remarkable. He hails from Haldwani and has always excelled at academics and extracurricular activities. He was the school's poster boy and everyone's favorite.

Despite being one of the only 4 students in his batch (12th-PCM), he ranked in the 99+ percentiles in National Level examinations like JEE, IISERAT, etc. It's interesting to note that he shares his alma mater with some of India's most successful entrepreneurs, including Shree Mukesh Ambani.

He's had the privilege of sharing the campus with some of the country's most talented folks, from young scientists to national-level athletes. However, he realized during his first mid-semester exams that engineering was not the right path for him.

Since then, he has achieved remarkable things, from becoming the youngest freelancer in the world to being recognized with the Rising Talent Badge by Upwork Inc., to starting multiple successful startups in the tech and community-tech space.

The support of some outstanding entrepreneurs and investors, including Google, Deshpande startups, and Riidl backs his accomplishments. It's safe to say that he is a true inspiration to many and a testament to the power of hard work and perseverance.
