Mentor at World Triathlon Federation.

 I am India’s first & only World Triathlon Level 2 certified triathlon coach. Since 2015 I have been the brand ambassador of Triathlon at South Asian Triathlon Association. At the age of 29 (born on 27th April, 1991 in Ahmedabad), I’m a successful Head Coach of Triathlon alongside running my multi-sports academy – PC Tri Sports Academy, who has coached several elite as well as age-group athletes in Aquathlon, Duathlon & Triathlon. I am adept at directing triathlon races and officiating national and international triathlon races. But my journey with Triathlon first began as an athlete. I began my sports career with swimming an early 1999. At the age of 9, I started winning medals at state level competitions. Later, at the age of 12, I won my first national medal in swimming. Along with swimming, I was a national player of Aquathlon. In 2006, watching my achievements in National Aquathlon Championship, ITF (Indian Triathlon Federation) gave me a chance to participate in Triathlon event. This was my 1st Gold medal in Triathlon, which actually took everyone by surprise! And since then I’m captivated by this sport. Hitherto I have more than 230 medals to my name, which also includes medals in swimming, sea swimming of 30 KM’s Aquathlon and Triathlon at various levels. I feel proud in sharing that I have been crowned South Asian Triathlon Champion for 3 times & I’m 7 times National Triathlon Champion. I decided on transitioning my triathlon journey from an athlete to a coach because during my tenure as a triathlete I faced difficulty due to lack of proper guidance in India. So in the year 2016, my brother and I started a multi-sports academy named PC Tri Sports Academy, to take Triathlon further.
