About

I help build products at Avasant. Lead the Product teams across AvaSense, AvaMark, Strativa Edge, Avasant Copilot, GCC Intelligence Platform and other products. My previous experiences range from Strategy Consulting to Product Management to Marketing to being a Jack of All as an entrepreneur. A generalist to the core, my deeper expertise though lies within Product Management. I've earlier cofounded Bold Kiln which was a one-stop shop solution provider for startups and emerging businesses. We were a multi-faceted business providing services, products, co-working space, Investments (via OperatorVC), content, and more. Within my stint at EY, I worked with the Govt Of Rajasthan and have been instrumental in setting up two startup incubators for iStart (Dept of IT's flagship Startup programme) at Jaipur and Udaipur. At AppStudioz, I headed the Product Development and Strategy for the product division - Appbulous.
