I am on a journey of reading and understanding 100 books. I use the information and knowledge that I have gained and combine that with my journey in Australia to share insights on LinkedIn. My purpose is to add value to people's lives by paying it forward and writing on LinkedIn. I write what I feel would have been useful to me when I was an international student. I also help migrants develop a growth mindset. My story: I grew up in Mumbai, India where there is a strong culture for cricket, but other sports suffer. I always wanted to be an athlete but was neither brave nor had the stomach to be relentless in my practice. I chose the safe option of being average to good in academics and following the herd when it came to doing a bachelor’s in computer engineering and then finding an IT job. I left my awesome IT job in 2017 to pursue a career in sports. I decided to do a Masters in Sports Management from Deakin University to develop my skills and create a career path in sports. The reason I decided to do this was that I hit a brick wall and did not see myself working in the IT industry any longer. I always knew that I wanted to work in sports and after a lot of thinking, I finally gained the courage to leave my comfort zone in pursuit of being resilient and patient and making an impact in the field of sport. I am currently working in Adelaide as a Project Officer for the Office for Recreation, Sport and Racing. I have 5 years of experience in sports administration, coaching and development. I am a sports management professional not only interested in assisting people to get off the couch and start being active but also enjoys motivating elite athletes to find their true potential. I love helping people to create a reading habit and develop a growth mindset. 🙌I am always intrigued by people's journeys. So, if you want to have a quick chat, I am always open to learning about your journey.
