Ravi Suhag is self-taught coder and hacker & is considered one of India's top hackers with multiple awards and accolades up his sleeve. Ravi Suhag is one of us, yet so different. Ravi was born and brought up in a village in Haryana and studied in a Hindi medium school, in a classroom under a tree. Ravi was always curious, though he had no access to formal education in electronics; he was always the one who would break little electronic things, trying to figure out how they operated. Ravi created his first circuit in class 7 and soon a small inverter, all from scrap. He studied to get into IIT, failed, cried, even fainted; but he did not lose hope. He had a dream to create his own venture, so he cut down his expenses, lived in a 5X8 feet room, taught physics to kids, sold health insurances, gave workshops in colleges and eventually created his company during his years at engineering college. Ravi credits his mentor for seeing the potential in him and motivating him to work and build things. He learnt front end, back end and other technical aspects of creating a website, all in just a month. Till date, Ravi has participated in 13 hackathons and won 11 of them. While people believe in doing one thing at a time, he believes in “being all you can be.” Ravi is an entrepreneur, designer, web developer, computer architect and poet, with an ardent desire to explore his passion completely and be much more.
