About

With over a decade of experience working across Product, Growth & Marketing, I use a data-driven mindset to work towards business goals through lateral thinking and constant experimentation. Over the course of my career, I have worked on multiple products, focusing on improving user experience, onboarding, education and GTM strategies. I am also a copywriter and Creative Head, having worked on everything from Product Communication to video scripts. Here are some of the services I offer: a) End-to-end marketing, content & GTM strategy: Is your current user acquisition strategy not working? Unsure of how to communicate product benefits and features to users for better adoption? Facing drop-offs in your retention journeys? I specialise in creating data-led omni-channel communication strategies for digital products, especially in their 0 to 1 or 1 to 10 journey. b) Setting up communication channels: Email, SMS, WhatsApp integrations, identifying marketing automation tools and use cases, and everything related to getting communication channels up and running based on specific client requirements and budgets. c) Rapid prototyping and UI/UX enhancements: Need help in identifying drop-off points and figuring out user pain points? Not sure how to run A/B tests to validate hypothesis? That’s where I come in. I can work with you to figure out solutions that improve user experience while keeping an eye on North Star metrics. Want to get in touch? My DMs are open!
