co-founder, re-verse.in

I grew up in Kotkapura,a small town in punjab, completing my education through high school with a strong academic record. My career journey began with hands-on experience in the service industry, where I worked as a manager at Papa John's Pizza in Netherlands. There, I learned how to manage operations like deliveries and finances, gaining valuable skills in customer service and efficiency.

After gaining experience in the pizza industry, I decided to pause my college studies to focus on starting my own business. This decision was driven by my passion to create something meaningful and innovative. While living in Europe, I closely observed the clothing market and its extensive export network to over a hundred developed countries such as India and Myanmar. I was particularly fascinated by how they efficiently export used clothes, contributing significantly to the global thrift market. This observation deeply influenced the concept behind my current startup. But i want to take this to next level in my own country.

So i decided to come back india after spending 5 years in Netherlands. Here I worked with my father in Indian textile industry, which gave me insights into manufacturing and managing supply chains. This experience deepened my understanding of business operations and strengthened my determination to succeed as an entrepreneur. On closely analysing how much waste this industry produces the idea for my current startup clicked to me.

Today, I combine my academic background, practical experience, and entrepreneurial spirit to lead my startup towards achieving its goals. My journey reflects my commitment to learning, innovation, risk taking abilities and making a positive impact in the business.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."

"After moving back from the USA, eChai became my go-to space to learn how the Indian startup ecosystem works. It offered direct exposure to startup thinking and a community that openly shares business insights. What stood out was how easy it was to connect, learn, and grow through real conversations. As we built our IT hardware rentals business, eChai helped us find our niche and refine our path. Proud and grateful to be part of this amazing community."
