About

As a Senior Brand Manager for digital commerce and new business at Procter & Gamble, I build the foundation for growth by strategically managing media, promotions, pricing, and delivery. My work involves creating and executing the building blocks that drive brand success across digital channels, as well as new categories. Previously, I was a Marketing Strategist at Google, managing a global client portfolio and leading AI-driven solutions across Google Ads. My experience at Reckitt as an Assistant Brand Manager for E-Commerce involved managing a significant P&L for brands like Colin, Mortein, and Airwick, overseeing all aspects from net revenue to gross margin. I led full-funnel performance marketing across major platforms, which resulted in a 40% increase in net revenue and a 60% boost in quick commerce sales. Additionally, I played a pivotal role in global AI initiatives to enhance e-commerce strategies, improving SEO and driving higher engagement through innovative content testing. I hold an MBA from the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad, and a BMS in Marketing from Jai Hind College, Mumbai. Passionate about digital marketing, e-commerce, and technology, I bring creativity, strategy, and data-driven insights to the dynamic world of sales, marketing, and tech. I’m driven by a commitment to innovate, always seeking to leave a lasting impact on the brands I manage and the teams I work with. Whether through data-driven strategies or creative solutions, my goal is to turn challenges into opportunities for growth.
