From Chapra, to the world.

The first rupee.

I was a school student at Kendriya Vidyalaya Mashrak, in a town most people couldn't point to on a map, when I opened a Fiverr account. No mentor told me to. I had a slow internet connection, a hand-me-down computer, and the stubborn idea that the internet didn't care about my pin code.

Over the next six years I delivered 200+ WordPress projects and 2,000+ graphics to clients around the world — learning design, code, deadlines and difficult customers before I was old enough to vote. The world's classroom was open 24/7, and I never logged out.

Words before exploits.

Before I broke into systems, I learned to break into attention. As a content writer for Tusk Travel and Social Ornament, I wrote SEO content that actually ranked and copy that actually converted. It taught me something most security people never learn: if you can't explain a risk simply, you can't defend against it.

One company, every hat.

I walked into Purezza Technologies through the design door — as a Graphics Expert in January 2022. By November I was the company's Cyber Security Analyst. Then Chief SEO Officer. Then Chief Marketing Officer. Then Team Lead Manager — all while shipping WordPress builds as a senior developer.

Some people called it doing too much. I called it founder training. By the time I helped steer Purezza from a service shop into a technology ecosystem serving 50+ businesses, I had touched every function a company has — and led most of them.

Sharpening the blade.

While building companies by day, I trained relentlessly: B.Tech in Computer Science at Amity University Patna (9.1 CGPA), penetration-testing internships at TechnoHacks EduTech, the Cisco Networking Academy Ethical Hacker program, Microsoft's Copilot for Security Ninja training, a 30-day hacking streak on TryHackMe, and security workshops at IIT Patna and NIT Patna.

2023 brought the first national signal: runner-up for Best Idea to Prevent Cyber Crimes at AUP. The work was starting to speak.

The eagle takes flight.

In July 2024 I co-founded GarudaX — named for the celestial eagle who fears no serpent — taking the seat of CTO & CISO. Not another security consultancy: a product lab building AI-powered defense platforms. That same year I worked as a Digital Forensics Consultant for Cyber Intelligence Global LLP in New Delhi, analyzing digital evidence for real legal cases.

Then the awards followed the work: Winner, Bihar Startup Awards 2024 · National Top 50, Ideate for India (MeitY × Intel) · LinkedIn Top Cybersecurity Voice.

Crossing oceans.

From June 2025 to April 2026 I served as Security Consultant for Tyros Securities in the Maldives — advising on security architecture for a platform that protects airports, hospitals, government campuses and critical infrastructure. The kid from Chapra now defends systems across borders.

And the teaching never stopped: 1,500+ interns mentored, 1,200+ students educated, 500+ employees trained, and a standing collaboration with the Cyber Police Cell in Chapra — because the place that made me deserves the best of what I learned.

The unwritten pages.

One of India's most influential cybersecurity product companies. AI security platforms in global hands. 100,000 professionals trained. Millions of users protected. India positioned as a leader in security innovation — not a back office for it.

Underestimate the kid from Bihar. It's worked out badly for everyone who has.
