Jitendra knew early on that he would rather be a job-giver than a job seeker. Completing his schooling from Choithram in 1990, he started a software business and began coding for small businesses. His resourcefulness and attitude of never saying NO to anything, led him to become the dealer for AutoCAD for the region. The creative being in him would not be suppressed, however. Getting a chance to play a lead role in the launch event of Bridgestone Tyres in India, he started out on his design journey and has not looked back since. Building up a creative agency servicing giants of industry and servicing them across the globe has been an arduous but deeply rewarding journey.
Along the path, he has also taught creativity at the University. Many of those students, now in high positions in large global corporations, still look to him today as a mentor. While building his agency, Jitendra did not lose sight of his first passion, Photography and is now an internationally awarded photographer.
