Namaste, I’m Shashank Kashyap —
— Lifelong Learner and Educator
I didn't come from a computer science background, but curiosity changed everything. Today, I work as a Sr. Lead Business Analyst, previously with EY, completed Master's in Machine Learning & AI, guest lecturing at IIM Sambalpur, and mentoring 1,000+ learners. I believe anyone can learn Data Analytics and AI with the right guidance.

One line. Ten years. From zero students and a support-desk job to a community of 1000+ learners. Click the points — every one hides a story.
* Annotated by hand, like every good chart should be.

Shipping05 · Three Chapters
01
Arts in school. Hindi instead of computer science. Electronics engineering because that’s how the dice fell. At TCS I worked support — watching others build while I kept the lights on. On paper, I was behind everyone. Off paper, I was just getting started.
02
COVID. I felt good for nothing — stuck in support, torn between singing, acting and teaching. Then one decision changed the slope of the whole chart: I took my life under my control. Python at night. SQL on weekends. Power BI until it clicked. A Master's in Machine Learning & AI to prove the “average student” wrong.
03
My father is a chemistry professor — teaching is in my genes. Two school kids became 1000+ learners in data analytics and AI. I don’t have money to give away. But knowledge multiplies when shared and can never be taken back. Every stranger is just extended family I haven’t met yet.
06 · Things I Believe
कहते हैं कि अगर किसी चीज़ को दिल से चाहो,
तो पूरी कायनात उसे तुमसे मिलाने की कोशिश में लग जाती है।
“If you want something with all your heart, the whole universe conspires to help you get it”
