About

Hi, I'm Adarsh! I love building interesting projects and cultivating passionate, talented people looking to grow in the industry.

I'll share more about me below but to summarize how I can help, feel free to reach out if you're
- someone outside the industry or looking for a job and need eyes on your resume and ways to stand out
- someone already in the industry but looking to grow their career (managing stakeholders, project management, engineer excellence, navigating promotions, leading as an engineer..etc)
- just need general advice (side projects, working in this field, need a safe space for discussing difficult workplace situations)

𝐍𝐨𝐰 𝐚 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐛𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐞...

I was born and raised in Dubai, UAE before I went on to study Computer Science at UCLA and did internships at ESRI and Google. Following that, I worked at Google in New York for a little under 5 years before moving to Stripe as a Senior Software Engineer back in Dubai. I

I've led several large scale full stack projects and groups of engineers across various initiatives. I do this while continuing to seek opportunities to scale myself as an engineer and leader.

In my spare time, I love building hobby projects that are exciting to work on for me personally and help solve interesting problems for others. I've built NookPlaza.net (10+ million views) for Animal Crossing, Palpedia.net (20+ million views) and many other interesting projects.

I also love spending time mentoring others to share my own experiences and knowledge. Over the last 3-4 years, I've helped over 75+ folks outside of my day job with career and resume workshopping. At my jobs, I've helped various colleagues and mentees continue to grow.

To be candid, I did all that for free because I genuinely enjoy helping others and still do. It helps me learn a lot and stay grounded so that I never forget what this industry and market is like for others. As my time and experience has grown, I'm trying out refocusing this as a paid effort to provide quality time & value to both you and me.

𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞
If you've made it this far and decided you don't need my help or the timing isn't right, I hope I can at least leave you with these 5 brief advices:

1. 𝐒𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩: Someone who's been through the wringer.

2. 𝐒𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩: Someone who IS going through the wringer.

3. 𝐒𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲: If you wait for things to come to you, you may be waiting forever. This applies to classes, work, and reaching out to your network.

4. 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: treating people the way you'd want to be treated goes a long way. One day you will be where you always wished you were and somebody else wishes they were.

5. 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞: Imposter syndrome is widespread and thinking you got lucky is too. But you got that new internship, job, promotion, or opportunity because of the hard work you put in. I personally believe luck is just the accumulation of hard work so it's important to recognize your own value.

Thanks for reading and I look forward to potentially connecting!
