Hello, I’m Jagat.THE PERSON BEHIND THE PAGES
A builder of software.
A believer in small joys.
After a career as a software entrepreneur, I began a different kind of exploration: how can we bring more happiness into an ordinary day?
That question became A Two-Week Journey to Happiness. My love of laughter and imagination found another home in the adventures of Rocket and Little Rascal.
Today, I share those worlds through books and conversations with readers, families, and community groups.
