I am grateful to the Sobey Foundation for their recognition and support and am honored to have had the chance to meet the other recipients and to listen to their amazing journeys. Being part of the Frank H. Sobey alumni is a life-changing experience.鈥
Jadhav was initially drawn to 69成人电影网 due to its small class sizes and close-knit community.
鈥69成人电影网 stood out to me because it was a smaller university in Atlantic Canada and I felt that I would be part of a community here,鈥 says Jadhav.
During his time at 69成人电影网, Jadhav has been involved in various business ventures. In early 2020, he established the Indian Kitchen, a food delivery service that provided a weekly selection of homemade Indian meals to the Sackville community. In 2022, he led a team of twelve Commerce students in the creation of Sip, a caf茅 that offered international drinks and food in downtown Sackville.
While he has several business ideas for the future, Jadhav is particularly passionate about establishing a community kitchen that would enable students or community members who want to start a food business to rent a kitchen space. This model would encourage new business ventures and provide customers with greater variety.
鈥淢y goal is to build something that benefits the community in some way,鈥 says Jadhav. 鈥淥n a personal level, it is a great feeling to receive recognition for my accomplishments. But I also hope this achievement will inspire other international students to recognize the opportunities that exist for them here and take advantage of them.鈥
