HER CAREER

—To fufill the basic needs of her family, she started working as agriculture labourer for Rs. 5 per day.

—In 1989,Nehru Yuvak Kendra (NYK) started a night school in the village to teach the basic education for adults. She was the only educated girl in village so they appointed her as the volunteer to educate the adults after giving some training. It fetched her Rupees 150 per month.

—Her hard work and dedication impressed the Inspection authorities  and they  appointed her Mandal Prerak of Hanumakonda.

—She completed her graduation and post graduation Distance Mode from Ambedkar Open University.

She did B. Ed from Anna University and become a government teacher.

HER DREAM

—Impressed by the life style of an America settled relative  and determined to have a bright future for her daughters, she made up her mind and learnt computers and started saving money for her passport and visa. After series of early failures, she got a visiting visa and flew to America with a little amount.

—She joined as a salesperson in “ Movie Time ’’ a video shop in New Jersey.

—A known Indian from Warangal saw her and recommended her name to his brother who owned a company called “ CSAMERICA” and she was appointed as recruiter after being trained.

—Later a well know company ICSA offered her a good job with handsome salary. Again she faced some problems as her visa was not approved and she went for H1 visa. She had to resign her job in ICSA and again had to work for $5 per hour in nominal jobs till she got her H1 visa.

All the hardships of obtaining visa gave her an idea of establish her first entrepreneurship to assist the people to get their Visas. Thus Keys software solutions was initiated. It extended it services like developing software solutions and recruitment and other job providing areas. Jyothi came to America in May 2OOO and by September, 2001 she became entrepreneur

FULFILLMENT OF DREAMS

—She made enough money to take care of her children and her near relatives.

—Her two daughters could finish higher education in America from prestigious universities and got married to well settled bridegrooms.

—“I want to tell women to be economically independent and take their own decisions instead of depending on their fathers, husbands and sons at various stages in life. They keep educational degrees as mere certificates and stop working after marriage unlike in the US. Be the master of your fate and remember, taking care of children is part of life, but not a life,” said the Key Software Solutions CEO whose autobiography Aina Nenu Odipoledu (I haven't been defeated) was released on March 10, 2013.

—She is also an ardent advocate of orphans' rights.
