About

With end-to-end product ownership, I collaborate with stakeholders across the product ecosystem to deliver solutions that meet customer needs and align with business goals. At SP Software, I manage the product strategy, roadmap, development, and growth/adoption of products in the U.S. healthcare domain. I have built credible partnerships with business functions, internal stakeholders, channel partners, and clients, and established a product development strategy with the engineering team. I have 8 years of U.S. healthcare experience and 5 years of product management experience, with certifications in Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) and Certified SAFe® 6 Product Owner/Product Manager (POPM). I have a MBA from Maharshi Dayanand University and a Bachelors in information management from Kurukshetra University, with a focus on database administration. I have successfully delivered multiple MVPs that validated customer feedback and identified product enhancements. I have also improved team performance and morale through coaching, facilitation, and problem-solving. I am passionate about creating products that make a positive impact on people's health and well-being.
