          <span id="first-letter">H</span> i! I'm Rushil Umaretiya, sole
          proprietor of CrucialNET. Welcome to my eponymous abode, I spent quite
          a while working on this, so my Dad said that it should be good, or I'd
          get a थप्पड़. Let's start from the beginning, I’m in 4th grade and I
          have some great neighbors who are willing to teach me and a bunch of
          other 4th graders Scratch, a block based graphic language that is used
          to teach the basics of computer programming, such as basic loops and
          if/else statements. By 5th grade I'm fluent in Scratch, and I
          <!-- If you're here because you were to lazy to count, I sympathize--><a
            href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ"
            id="secret-link"
            >want</a
          >
          to learn more, so like any other normal 5th grader I take a 8-week
          course in web development. I decide that making websites is fun, but
          there is more, so as I delve further into coding in my free time, I
          decide that learning Java would be a could next step, so I return to
          my neighbors who teach me Java through Minecraft modding (It kept my
          10 year-old mind occupied). With a foothold in Java I create some
          really cool Minecraft things, and decide that the best course of
          action would be learning more languages, and even though I realized
          that it would be quite the while before I was able to anything
          substantial with this newfound knowledge I knew that learning how to
          code teaches one how to think, and I would be more than ready when the
          time came to use my knowledge. So I kept learning, and taking more and
          more in: from the simplicity of Ruby to the depths of SQL. By this
          time I was in 7th grade, and I was realizing that the workload was
          catching up. I quickly realized that some of my peers were taken by
          surprise, slowly falling behind, while others seemed ready for this
          for years. This left me completely disheartened, and I realized that
          the one-size-fits-all mindset of the American education system was
          leaving too many people behind. So I decided that I would finally
          decide to do something about this, and began a completely free
          tutoring service.

        <div id="text-column2">
          Making it free was one of the things that really pushed it the extra
          mile for me, allowing myself to give many students who weren’t
          compatible with the learning system a second chance at showing their
          strength, and not being able to harmonize with the static flow of the
          current educational standards was nothing to be ashamed about, but
          really just something that deserves a different point of view than
          what was originally fed to the student, because there is no person
          without potential to progress. I Currently I have 13 students who I
          consult, some coming once a month to twice a week, ranging from
          sophomore to 7th grade, on a myriad of subjects. And this becomes a
          mutualistic relationship, because just as they are learning, so am I,
          constantly, from new techniques to different perspectives on a
          subject. And even through tutoring I was still able to indulge in my
          other hobbies, especially Arduino, something I’ve always seen as too
          difficult, but after getting a starter kit, it turned out to be pretty
          simple, so I built myself an alarm clock, and then designed a audio
          input to frequency board that I plugged into a LED strip creating a
          stunning linear visualizer. Just as I’ve learned Arduino, I’ve also
          learned a great deal about game development, mainly through Unity, and
          created quite a few 2D and 3D games on multiple platforms. I am
          currently working app development for my latest project, FromMeToYou
