"What you seek, Will seek You" - Rumi

This famous proverb from Rumi is so true when it comes to my career and profession. I always wanted to be in a space of creativity, a profession where you have an opportunity to create a dream into reality. Missed by a whisker to be an Architect as I didn't take up an aptitude test. The next closest profession was Civil Engineering and I grabbed the opportunity with both hands and completed my graduation in 2006.

My only goal was to have my startup and for that, I had given myself a decade to prepare before I could plunge.

During all 4 years of my graduation, I was always a curious and proactive student-focussed more on design subjects, building materials, and surveying. I was eager to work and wanted to put all my learnings into work. To my luck, I landed a job in a construction company even before my final year results were out.

I was placed as Engineer – Technical Services a position that supports projects in procurement and billing. This was a dream job and I was truly blessed as my company CEO was young and energetic always wanted to support encourage young talented professionals.

I strongly believe that every experience is a great teacher, be smart to catch the learnings and implement as you tread along. Fail Fast and take corrective actions to meander yourself without losing focus on your end goal. I grasped every opportunity in the organization that would throw light on how an organization works, I had the opportunity to interact with top management that allowed me to understand their strategies and decisions.

It wasn't a cakewalk for me as they say "No Gain without Pain", but the end result is after 15 strong years of working, my dream to start my firm came into reality on June 12th, 2019.

Uttaram InConstruct was formed as a company that would be a one-stop solution provider for all construction needs.
