Growing up in a small village, I witnessed how capable young people quietly missed opportunities—not because they lacked talent, but because information never reached them. Experiencing exclusion and unequal access to opportunities myself, I came to believe that no young person should be left behind simply because they never knew an opportunity existed. That belief inspired me to create Project Contest 360, an opportunity discovery platform that has now been visited more than 8.7 million times, helping bridge the information gap for students and young people across India.
