Hi Friends,

Let me introduce myself... nikhil joshi from Ahmedabad. A Media Manager by profession...

My Journey in this advertising world started with a typewriter!

I remember it was 9th Standard at Little Flower School and I used to ride my father's bicycle and reach the typing class..

I started learning typing amongst serious students who were actually preparing for their 10th Standard Board exams since they had typewriting as a subject so as to increase percentage score in the board. For me there was absolutely no such objective... I had the objective of getting a job in my mind in the future and so I started learning it 1 year earlier. In the 1st year I was almost an expert and with the second year of learning which was my 10th standard I was an expert... On a lighter note my Typewriting instructor used to scold me for interrupting with his teaching... all in a friendly manner... I still remember his face...

This helped me a lot.... In fact it was the stepping stone for me to get a job as a Typist in an Ad Agency... That was the time I learned to look at the classified ads with help of my father. I was in the 12th at that time waiting for my board results and I attended the interview...

The day was 13th April, 1989, RAMNAVMI an auspicious day as per Hindu Mythology... I joined my first job at Naren Advertising And Marketing as a Typist-cum-Clerk.

Little did I know what was installed for me in the years to come...

Friends I will continue this Journey AROUND AHMEDABAD....

It is all by the grace of god and only because of the wishes of friends like you that I tread on this path.
