Sidagam Veerabhadrarao was driven by his passion to build new things. He excelled in his schoolwork and achieved the fourth rank in the ECET in 2021, which allowed him to secure a seat at the University College of Engineering in JNTU Kakinada. After years of hard work and dedication, he was able to begin pursuing a degree in BTech in Civil Engineering.

However, he saw how his family suffered at the expense of his education, and after looking for solutions his seniors at university directed him towards NSF. Thanks to the help from donors and volunteers he was able to relieve his family from any additional burden and flourish in his studies. Sidagam now has his eyes set on his goal of creating a civil engineering startup and is able to utilize the skills and knowledge he has developed at university.
