I’m happy to share that I started a new position as a Senior Consultant at Idlewild Partners! I'm really psyched about both a) Idlewild's amazing client base: human service, education/youth development, advocacy, policy reform and workforce development organizations and b) the inspiring and awesome team that I get to work with. I was also glad to start this job with a week of getting to know my coworkers onsite in NYC. Both the clients and the coworkers feel like "my people" and I'm excited and look forward to getting to my desk every day.
Excited to share that I've just started my journey as a Legalisation Administrator at Argentum Attestation FZ LLC !
As I wrap up my first week, I've already gained some valuable insights:
Attention to Detail Matters: In reviewing documents for authentication, I've learned the critical importance of meticulous
attention to detail. Catching a small discrepancy in a client's paperwork can save potential delays in the
legalisation process.
Effective Communication is Key:
Whether liaising with clients, government agencies, or internal teams, clear and concise communication is essential.
Time Management is Crucial: With multiple documents to process and deadlines to meet, effective time management is a must.
Adaptability is a Strength: The legalisation landscape can be unpredictable, with regulations and requirements subject to change.
Here's to a fulfilling journey ahead in this role, where each day brings new opportunities for growth and contribution!
Just want to thank Jessica Munden and Isabella MacSorley for being so welcoming and patient with me.
🌟 From Cold Email to Full-Time Dream Job in 2 Weeks! 🌟
Meet my colleague from AIESEC in India, Shreyansh! 💼 Just a couple of weeks ago, he decided to seize an opportunity by crafting a well-thought-out cold email to Varun Mayya. Little did we know that this simple outreach would lead to an extraordinary journey!
Varun responded, and what followed was a game-changing conversation that landed Shreyansh a two-week gig at the heart of the action – the Founder's Office. 🎯 It was an immersive experience that blended real-time work and interview-like interactions. 🤝
jump to the present, and Shreyansh's dedication, passion, and skills have paved the way for something truly special. He's proudly transitioned into a full-time role, proving that a well-crafted email and genuine determination can open doors you never thought possible.
This story isn't just about Shreyansh's achievement – it's a testament to the possibilities that lie in those bold steps outside of your comfort zone.
So, here's to embracing the unexpected, crafting meaningful connections, and turning them into opportunities that shape your journey, to Shreyansh for his initiative and to Varun for his willingness to spot talent in the most unexpected places. 🙌

Lohith says that he "finally" gathered the courage to post about his new position at DataWars.
But let me tell you more about how we met, and you'll see how courageous he's been, and how important is to push for what you love.
I first became acquainted with Lohith in our nascent DataWars' Discord Server. At the beginning, it was me answering most of the questions from users, but one day this guy came with a weird Ironman profile picture helping other users in a random server. We didn't know each other, we didn't pay him, anything. He just saw a question and helped. First show of courage.
A few weeks in, after answering questions here and there, he started asking his own questions. But they were nothing like simple Python/Pandas questions, he was asking about the mathematical derivation of the Bias–variance tradeoff 😳.
He was taking a course about Machine Learning, and he was digging even deeper by his own means into topics that were not covered. Second show of courage.
A few months ago, he randomly emailed me with an idea of building a project for DataWars. We didn't post a search or anything like that. He initiated the contact. We obviously were extremely happy to count with him in our team. Third show of courage.
Lohith is a great example of how working hard and pushing for what you like will do for you. I have gotten several important deals in my life by just cold-emailing someone and being honest about how we could collaborate. Worst thing that can happen? They don't reply.
So keep pushing, keep asking for what you want, and keep building connections. I hope Lohith's courage serves as a motivator.

Founder & CEO of BioBQ, Inc. and Assistant Director of CIP Engineering for the City of Pflugerville, Texas
In October 2023 I happily started a new job as the Assistant Director of Traffic & Transportation for the City of Pflugerville. I am so thankful for being selected for this position because this is an opportunity to lead the development of a safer, more multimodal transportation system for a city that has grown from a small agricultural town to a major, diverse residential community and employment hub for Central Texas. The city is a delightful place to work with a collaborative, forward-thinking group of staff, consultants, and city leadership that support the vision of a safer, multimodal transportation system. I stepped in at the right time to ensure new roadway projects provide facilities for pedestrians, cyclists, and low speed modes, and include roundabouts where feasible to reduce the chances of crashes. I look forward to sharing the progress.
And for those that follow my other endeavors, yes, I’m still working on BioBQ too (after work); more updates on that later! I stay wonderfully busy!
Somethings can only be experienced (hard to explain in words). The journey thus far has been very satisfying with hundreds of stories of how people special & common are benefitting from the traditional knowledge. Everybody has advices for healthy living and routine health issues, with elements of kitchen herbs and spices but because of time constrain, tedious & messy ends up not doing it.
Herbal sip is instant & easy mix of all those advised herbs & spices in a sachet. Enjoying my New role.
