Praffull Sakpal

From uncertainty to purpose

Praffull comes from a single-parent home and benefited from the yoga, English and computer classes provided by Abhyudaya. He was a bright student but was uncertain about his career path.

“Abhyudaya played a key role in helping me decide on my academic path and career. After my graduation, while I was waiting for my first job to begin, Abhyudaya helped me get an Internship at SPJIMR.”

Abhyudaya provided Praffull with counselling and guidance, helping him gain clarity and confidence in his decisions. Mentors also offered valuable guidance by sharing their own experiences.

The financial support extended by Abhyudaya was also a great help to his family.

“I also met many students who were just like me; some of them have now become my close friends.”

Praffull is currently working as a Senior Software Engineer at I2E, where he develops and maintains a mobile app called ‘Transcend’ for The Bhaktivedanta Book Trust—a leading publisher of traditional scriptures translated into 87 languages, as well as books that interpret and explain these texts.

“Looking ahead, I aspire to continue growing in my career—to take on more challenging roles, expand my technical expertise, and contribute to meaningful projects that make a difference.”
