About

Most salespeople talk. The best ones listen. I’ve built my career around that difference, helping SaaS and tech companies grow by understanding people before pitching products. Whether it’s driving conversions, managing key accounts, or shaping GTM strategy, I focus on turning real conversations into long-term partnerships. My experience spans SaaS, XR, and digital growth, where I’ve learned how to connect innovation with business outcomes that actually move the needle. I enjoy working with teams who value curiosity, clarity, and a consultative approach to selling. For me, growth isn’t just about numbers, it’s about relationships that last, ideas that scale, and solutions that make sense. If that’s how you see sales too, we’ll probably have a lot to talk about.

Experience

Optiphoenix

Business Development Representative

Jun 2025Present · 9 mos · Mumbai, Maharashtra, India · Remote

  • Most brands I reach out to aren’t struggling with traffic — they’re struggling with what happens after the click.
  • At OptiPhoenix, we help growth-stage brands in the US turn more visitors into customers by identifying where conversions are dropping and fixing those leaks through psychology-led, behavior-first experimentation.
  • My role?
  • I start meaningful, low-pressure conversations with marketing, growth, and product leaders — to help them see where their funnel friction might be hiding, and whether structured CRO could unlock the growth they’re already paying for.
  • I don’t use templates or robotic pitches.
  • Every message is thoughtful, personalized, and rooted in real insight — because the first touch should feel like help, not hype.
  • If we’ve connected recently, it’s likely because I saw potential in your brand — and I’d love to explore whether conversion optimization could help you scale smarter.

Senior Learning Consultant

  • "Imagine being at the heart of a hub that's all about making career dreams come true, specifically in the dynamic realm of Data Science. That was my role as a Senior Learning Consultant at Great Learning.
  • Picture this: I wake up each day with a bucket full of leads, each a potential success story waiting to unfold. My mission? To connect with them through calls, emails, and the ever-handy WhatsApp.
  • I didn't just 'sell' programs; I crafted opportunities. Every call was a chance to dive into a learner's world, to understand their aspirations and chart the ideal learning journey. I'd be their guide through the maze of choices, suggesting the perfect program that fit like a glove.
  • The excitement didn't stop there. Oh no! I'd follow up with a determined spirit, making sure they had everything they needed to make that leap. Sometimes, a nudge was all they needed.
  • Numbers were my game too. Each month and every quarter, I had a revenue target to meet. It was a challenge, but hey, who doesn't love a good challenge? I'd strategize, plan, and dive into action, making sure those digits aligned just right.
  • And amidst all this, there was the 'Daily Productivity Index'. It was a compass guiding my day, ensuring every moment was productive, leading towards the ultimate goal - turning aspiring data enthusiasts into industry-ready professionals.
  • Every day was a story, every learner a chapter, and I, the narrator of their academic adventure. The satisfaction of achieving targets, the joy of seeing learners thrive - that's what made every day worthwhile."

  • I played a pivotal role at a peer-to-peer lending and borrowing company, specializing in managing investments. Imagine starting each day with a list of potential matches, reaching out through cold calls and emails, and orchestrating engaging sales calls to showcase our investment opportunities!
  • You know, it was like being a financial matchmaker - connecting lenders looking to invest with the perfect opportunities. I'd dive into the world of investments, using both personal connections and leads from brokers to ensure every lender found their ideal match.
  • Of course, this wasn't a one-time love story. It was about building relationships. I met countless lenders, shared our success stories, and walked with them through their investment journey, ensuring they felt secure and informed. Sometimes it took a little nudge, but with persistent follow-ups, we made sure love was in the financial air.
  • But hey, I wasn't just shooting arrows blindly. I had an incredible team. I recruited and trained a bunch of financial matchmakers, each armed with their bows and arrows, and set them monthly and quarterly targets. Together, we hit those targets consistently, spreading love and financial success.
  • Every month, every quarter, we achieved our goals, both as a team and personally. It was a thrilling ride, and I wouldn't have traded being a financial matchmaker for anything else.
