About

With over eight years of experience as the Group CEO and Founder of Purple Quarter, I lead a domain-agnostic bespoke CTO search firm that has successfully placed more than 180 top-level tech leaders across India, US, SEA, Africa, and UAE. I have partnered with companies at various stages, from stealth to IPO, and enabled them to find the best fit for their tech vision and culture. I am also an Executive Coach at Purple Labs Search, where I leverage my Stanford Seed certification in business transformation and my MBA in HR to mentor pre-seed, seed, and series A founders and CEOs from non-digital backgrounds. My mission is to empower entrepreneurs and innovators with the right mindset, skills, and network to scale their ventures in the digital era. I have a passion for talent identification, new business development, and mentoring, and I strive to create lasting value for my clients and partners.
