Hello everyone! We’ve finally reached the end of the year. And its time to review the joyous moments, the chaos and the lessons learnt through tough times. This year was definetly a year of growth, setbacks, and quiet resilience.
Achievements and some Fun Moments of 2025
- Graduated with my Master’s degree from the University of Colorado Boulder. Here are a few pictures to relive the moment

Completed 3 freelance projects succesfully and i couldn't be more grateful to God for providing me with the oppurtunity at the right time.

Launched a weekly newsletter this November and grew from 0 to 250+ subscribers in just two months. My main motive was to ditch shallow knowledge and satisfy my curious mind by diving deep, I am figuring things out as I write, articulating my learnings and experiences in a simple, easy-to-understand way.

Lessons Learnt
-
Acceptance is key :
Sometimes things just don’t go your way, and honestly, there isn't much you can do. Crying about it won't solve the problem; you just have to accept life as it is and keep moving. -
Art of Patience :
Play for the long game. It’s easy to get frustrated when things don’t happen instantly, but I’ve learned that success doesn't follow an algorithm. Great things take time to build -
Resillience over Rejection :
Lost some wonderful job oppurtunities that came my way, but never stopped learning, never stopped taking feedback. Every "no" was just fuel to keep moving forward and improving.
2026, I am coming for you.
