- Rahul has been with all things electronics since he was a kid. His fascination for gadgets and the urge to know how they function often meant that his house was full of dismantled electronic items he couldn't put back together.
- In 2003, he became part of Esato Forums — a community for Sony Ericsson users. His time at this tech-focused forum not only gave him a deep understanding of the mobile phone industry, but also honed his writing skills.
- The emergence of smartphones in the mid-2000s, combined with his penchant for writing, meant that he was among the lucky few who could turn their passion into a full-time career.
