Hi I'm Nagesh - Entrepreneur, Techie and foodie and this is my Introduction!
Hey guys, I am Nagesh and I figured out my way to this platform through http://coincap.io/
So where am I from?
Well, I was born in India, but I grew up in the beautiful Nepal.
There are a lot of beautiful cultural heritages like these. Sadly many of them were damaged in the April 2015 earthquake. But we are getting back on our feet 😊
And yes mountains, a lot of them
(PC: Google)
I have moved back to India now for work but my parents still live in Nepal. Which brings us to the second question.
What do I do?
I studied Computer Science Engineering from National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirapalli (another beautiful and culturally rich city).
I started my first startup when I was in college.
(Sadly, I could not expand it beyond my own college)
But because of my startup, I was hired by Adobe. At Adobe I worked on multiple products but primarily on server side development for Lightroom. Yup, I was part of the team that helped Lightroom evolve from a desktop only product to multi platform, multi device product.
After 3 years at Adobe, I felt it was time to move on. I joined my friend Prashant as co-founder and CTO of ShotPitch, a discovery and pitching platform for startups to investors around the world.
Unfortunately, we had to shut down ShotPitch due to unforeseen circumstances just a week before money in the bank for our angel round.
So what now? I am back again with Prashant, building a platform called Offrd. Offrd is a platform to hire pre assessed non-tech talent through business challenges.
Although we are currently only hiring for companies based out of Bangalore, you can check it out here and I would love to hear your feedback: https://offrd.co/
Apart from this, business runs in my blood. Imagine this, my dad is 70 and yet he is actively involved in the business. I manage online operations for his business and also help him source products from China.
Here are some of my friends from China
About family
I have five elder sisters all of whom are married.
And yes if you are wondering
(😂 Well this is kinda true. Besides, who doesn't love a good meme)
I love food. My friends call me Human Yelp because I always recommend restaurants to them. And yes I also love to cook.
I am excited to be part of Steemit and look forward to sharing more with the community in the days to come.
Also a huge shout out to @srinidhi and @oceanchild for the inspiration to write this post. I hope to meet you guys some day.
