About me: Pritesh Jain
10 things about me that I would like you to know
Hi, This is Pritesh and here’re 10 things that I would like you to know about me.
Born & brought up in Khandwa / Indore in MP, Studied in Bangalore / Ahmedabad. You will hear me talking about these places (food specially) a lot.
Married to Shreya, have two lovely daughters Saanvi (11yo) and Meher (6yo). These three girls rule my life & home.
Engineer, Manager by education, hustler and learner by nature, writer / curator by passion. I want to learn some art and create something.
I have worked in startups for most part of my career: Zovi, Myntra, Curefit, Gameskraft and now Redseer. I have been lucky to be surrounded by great talent and fantastic friends all along. Or maybe this is the pattern match that I do to find where to work.
There was a 18 month stint in Nokia in its toughest years in India, that shaped my personality and attitude a lot. I owe a lot to that short stint for what happened next in my journey.
I am a generalist by nature, you will find my getting interested & excited about many things. Maybe that’s the reason I have done so many different roles over the years. Or was it the other way?
I have varied interests: traveling, food, reading, writing, curating, experiencing experiences and of course spending time with my family. They give me joy and energy.
I have been curating a substack newsletter “Stay Curious” for the last 235 weeks (without a break). That’s the biggest streak I’ve had in anything. It has a very small audience, but one I am super proud to have met & gathered.
I am the official photographer in all my family & friends gatherings. I swear by google photos app.
I love collecting postcards, fridge magnets, and souvenirs. Little things. Things that can tell a story & build memories. So whenever you are thinking about giving me something, think of memories. ;)
