About

Always curious about people, places, startups, and stories. I use LinkedIn to serve and share this curiosity. Love skygazing and long walks (just not at the same time!). A true-blue movie buff. I also love writing and have penned about 15 short stories—slowly working towards a book someday. On the work front, I did my MBA from IIM Kashipur in 2022. HR was always the plan (right from undergrad days), and I started my journey at D. E. Shaw. Took a short entrepreneurial detour with my own F&B startup, and eventually found my way to Zomato, where I now look after all things HR for Hyperpure (the B2B Business of Zomato). Up for a good chat, all the time. Let’s connect!:)
