About the Author
Nagababu Jannu – Vice President, Lead Software Engineer in global finance and author of The Unseen Path.
I was born blind. But the biggest obstacles weren't only personal – they were structural: policies, gatekeepers, and a world that often treats "not standard" as "not allowed."
My journey includes long seasons of proving myself where the default answer was "no," and learning how to stand up to systems – including when that meant learning the language of law and fighting for basic fairness.
