PULKET
A curious builder learning to solve problems through code.
Currently an MBA student at IIM Mumbai, previously studied ECE at IIIT Surat. I've been fortunate to build a few apps that people seem to find useful. Always eager to learn more and create things that might help others in small ways.
My Journey So Far
Hi, I'm Pulkit Aggarwal
I started my journey studying Electronics & Communication Engineering at IIIT Surat. While learning about circuits and systems, I stumbled upon programming and fell in love with the idea that you could create something from nothing with just code.
Now I'm pursuing an MBA at IIM Mumbai, trying to understand how technology and business work together. It's been quite a shift from technical courses to case studies, but I'm learning so much about strategy and decision-making.
Along the way, I've been lucky enough to build some apps that people actually use. Every download, every positive review, every user who finds value in something I created – it still amazes me. I'm just someone who enjoys solving problems and happens to use code as my tool.
I'd love to connect if you're working on something interesting or just want to chat about ideas.
