from The Second Act with Michael and John · host Michael Newborn, John Ballenger
Ayush Gharat grew up in Bangalore, India, surrounded by entrepreneurs and innovators, which sparked his early fascination with technology. At just 10 years old, he began teaching himself coding, earning an Android development certification by eighth grade. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he founded Aashwas, a social initiative that provided thousands of healthcare workers with essential protective equipment, leading him to present at the United Nations and receive the Diana Award for humanitarian efforts. His passion for using technology to create impact continued with M-Nutrition, a software solution to combat child malnutrition, and recognition as a Young AI Champion by Meta. Now a junior at Georgia Institute of Technology, Ayush continues building innovative solutions while embracing uncertainty and risk-taking as key drivers of progress in his journey.
