About

I am a strategy, operations, and product leader with 10 years of experience across social impact, skilling, and technology sectors. My expertise lies in scaling organizations, driving data-backed decision-making, and optimizing operations to create measurable impact. Much of my work has been at the intersection of impact and technology, helping organizations improve efficiency, compliance, and growth. At ILSS, I led the repositioning of the organization into 4 Centres of Excellence, securing ₹3 Cr+ in funding and driving ₹1 Cr+ in annual recurring revenue. At NSDC, I developed tech-enabled accreditation and compliance solutions, including a digital accreditation platform that facilitated 7,500+ center approvals and generated ₹6 Cr+ in revenue. I also built a real-time inspection app optimizing 6,000+ field visits annually and developed the Skill Development Priority Index, a data-driven tool adopted by 27 states for better policy and funding decisions. I thrive on solving complex challenges—whether scaling impact-driven initiatives, streamlining operations, or building technology-driven solutions. My experience spans social impact, skilling, B2B SaaS, ops-tech, compliance-heavy industries, and marketplaces. I am currently exploring opportunities in the nonprofit and impact space, as well as strategy and operations roles in the for-profit sector. At the same time, I remain open to product roles in startups where I can drive growth and operational efficiency. Always happy to connect!
