I wasn’t lost. I just hadn’t built my path yet.
Born and raised in a small town in Maharashtra, I grew up quiet, stubborn, and curious — always the logical one in the room.
My father, an advocate, made sure I studied in an English medium school — where I thrived. I was sharp in academics, but life wasn’t about test scores.
It was about the unknown that came after.
I followed a plan. Just not my own.
After 12th, I took the medical route — not because I wanted to, but because it felt like the “right” thing to do.
I aimed for PharmD, missed it, and shifted to B.Pharm as the next best move.
No passion. No spark. Just doing what felt safe.
It wasn’t failure. It just wasn’t me.
The world shut down. I woke up.
Graduating during the 2020 lockdown, I felt like I had a degree and no direction.
I worked at a local pharmacy while searching every morning for something more. Then I got my pharmacy license, looked at MBA programs, considered government exams — but nothing felt right.
That “more” turned out to be digital marketing — and the moment I touched it, I knew.
No resume. No roadmap. Just action.
I started with cheap online courses, built imaginary brands to test strategies, and offered free work for testimonials.
No one was handing me a job — so I created my own path.
One cold email brought my first client.
From there, I grew — YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram.
Today, I work with creators, coaches, brands and business owners and help them grow across multiple platforms.
That's how I became The Social Media Manager.
