One year. One campus. One cohort that changed how I think about leadership, systems, and what it means to build something together.

The Journey
Year in Review
Every milestone, every event, every late night — in the order they happened.
August 2023
Arrived in Bangalore
Left Karur and the factory floor behind — temporarily. Moved to Christ University to begin the MBA in Lean Operations & Systems. First time living away from home, first time in a truly campus-driven environment.
Sep – Nov 2023
MBA Semester 1 — L3 Cohort
Joined the L3 (Lean Operations & Systems) cohort. Supply chain deep-dives, case studies, and discovering that lean thinking applies just as much to a classroom project as a shop floor. Built friendships that lasted the whole year.
October 2023
Pioneer Club — First Event
Became part of the Pioneer Club, Christ's student-run events collective. Helped organise the very first Pioneer event — from stage setup to audience coordination.
Jan – Mar 2024
USHUS — National B-School Fest
Joined the organising team for USHUS, Christ University's flagship national business school festival. Managed logistics, vendor coordination, and on-ground execution for one of South India's biggest B-school events.
June 2024
Back to School Community Initiative
Participated in a community outreach initiative — bringing MBA students back into school settings to mentor and connect with younger students.
June 2024
Theatre Workshop
Took part in an inter-departmental theatre workshop in the last week of June. Cross-functional team building through performance — understanding communication, presence, and collaboration in a completely different context.
July 2024
OBT — Outbound Training
TVW cohort outbound training session. Team-building exercises, outdoor challenges, and the kind of bonding that only happens when you take people out of classrooms and put them through something physical together.
October 2024
Chrizellenz 2024 — 3rd Prize
Competed in the Business Analytics competition at Chrizellenz 2024, Christ University's annual inter-college fest. Placed 3rd — applying data analytics skills built on factory floors to a competitive academic setting.
