Hi, I’m Anshul Bangadkar. I’m from Pune, India, and I've completed my Bachelor’s in Business Administration (BBA) with a major in Marketing and a minor in Operations and Supply Chain Management. I’ve always been a pretty decent student. More than just grades, I think college gave me the platform to step out of being “just a decent kid” and really grow into someone who enjoys taking responsibility, leading initiatives, and learning from experiences outside the classroom.
I currently work full-time at Black Cherie, a creative agency/product launch studio that builds award-winning brands, digital products, and campaigns. My role is Founder’s Office Lead, which basically means I work directly with the Founder & CEO across strategic planning, business operations, growth initiatives, client management, and team development.
I enjoy solving problems by designing processes & systems that are both scalable and practical, and I love the mix of creativity and structure this role gives me.
Before this, I did internships in sales and marketing, which helped me understand the basics of consumer behavior, market positioning, and how real businesses run day-to-day. I’ve also been very active in co-curriculars and leadership roles, which taught me how to manage people, communicate clearly, and keep things moving under pressure.
Outside of work and academics, I’m passionate about fitness and personal growth. For me, fitness is not just about the physique but about discipline and keeping my energy sharp for everything else I do.
In the long run, I see myself moving to high-impact roles in global companies while also building ventures of my own. What excites me most is the idea of creating things that last ; businesses, systems, or even personal influence that people remember. I value mastery, social influence, and legacy, and I try to make sure whatever I’m doing is a step toward that bigger picture.
At the end of the day, I like to believe I work harder and smarter than most people around me. I enjoy creating opportunities instead of waiting for them, and I don’t shy away from putting in the extra hours if that’s what it takes. Whether it’s growing my personal brand on LinkedIn, pushing myself in the gym, or building processes at work, I’m on a journey of constant improvement and I’m enjoying every bit of it.
