As a former professional badminton player, I bring a wealth of experience and passion to the sports industry. During my playing career, I competed in over 40 international tournaments across nearly 30 countries, winning 5 major titles and representing India in several World and Asia Championships. I achieved a highest world ranking of No. 44 and was a multiple-time national champion across all three categories (Men's Singles, Men's Doubles, and Mixed Doubles).After retiring from competitive play, I transitioned into coaching and now work with the Badminton Association of India at NCE Guwahati, where I share my knowledge and expertise with aspiring players. Additionally, I co-founded Sparring Player, a sports startup focused on providing high-quality sparring partners for athletes. Through this venture, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with the Spanish Badminton Association, assisting in the training of Olympic Gold medalist Carolina Marin. Our company has signed multiple contracts with leading European associations, ensuring a steady supply of top-tier sparring players.My journey in sports has instilled in me a deep appreciation for the values it teaches, such as discipline, perseverance, and teamwork. I am passionate about inspiring others in the industry through my experiences and insights, and I strive to make a positive impact on the next generation of athletes.
