I was a Lower Division Clerk in the Ministry of Education in New Delhi, India.
I also worked as a Data Entry Operator.
Since then, I came to the USA and worked for Oracle Corporation for 16 years.
This is after the gatekeeper in Oracle India would not even allow me to enter to submit my resume.
I have been a member of the Oracle Applications Users Technology Group (OATUG previously called OAUG) a Membership Chair for the entire Oracle world in the USA. I was elected for 2 consecutive years.
I had the opportunity to travel back to India through the government of India as 1 of only 24 people selected for the India Soft Program in 2016. This program was meant to build a collaboration between Indian IT industries and US companies. (At that time, I had founded two companies. They are all closed now.)
I was also a member of the Florida Oracle Applications Users Group President for a year or so.
All this would not have happened to me if I didn’t think I could do it. We have to motive ourselves.
We have to set goals, even when others are discouraging you – just as it happened to me.
I hope this inspires you to go out and chase your dreams. You can achieve higher things in the world. You have a purpose in this world. Keep going.
