Founder: 2op.gg | Gamer at heart & Entrepreneur by Profession | Strategy Maestro, Digital & Paper Marketer | Creator: JOYNNJOY - Gam'O'Verse | Dream, Hard work, Sacrifice, Struggle, Faith, Patience & Passion

I am a gamer by passion and an entrepreneur by profession. Gaming, esports, technology, and entrepreneurship drive me to wake up each day and work towards realizing the dream of building an all-inclusive game tech company.

Although I studied half of my engineering academically, I mastered the art of rejection through experience, facing numerous investor turn-downs. I excel at believing in myself, striving towards my goal, and leading my team to build this incredible ecosystem.

I have always wanted to merge my profession and passion, creating a robust community driven towards excellence. Marketing and strategy-making fascinate me, pushing me to learn something new each day as I strive to create 2op.gg. As the founder and visionary CEO of 2op.gg, I am inspired by the vision to establish a cutting-edge game tech company.

I have worked as a marketing and strategy consultant for various gaming cafes and businesses, both professionally and as a hobby. My areas of expertise include marketing, strategy development, and core management. Coming from a middle-class family, I place a high value on every paisa saved and earned. Despite my lack of formal education and experience, mentors and others have guided and taught me throughout my entrepreneurial journey. I've always enjoyed gaming and have both participated in and organized tournaments. Cricket, football, and other sports have captivated me since elementary school.

As the creator of JOYNNJOY, Gam'O'Verse, and 2op.gg, I believe esports provides me with entertainment, emotion, and a reason to be alive. In my opinion, it is the sixth element of the universe.

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
