About

With over 14 years of multi-sector experience, I am a growth and product marketing professional with proven competencies in driving sustainable growth, product management, managing P&L, and leading strategic projects. I hold an MBA from IIM Bangalore and a B.Tech in Electronics and Communications. Currently, I am part of the team at Paytm that is driving the growth of UPI, a multifaceted role that involves developing and executing the growth plans, driving strategic projects, improving product funnels, listening to customers, and streamlining UPI customer support. Previously, I spent three years at OYO, where I managed the P&L for 29 cities across North-East, North Bengal and Sikkim, delivering positive cash contribution margin consistently, and led technology-led initiatives to deliver best in class experience to merchants. I am a self-motivated leader with an ability to navigate ambiguity and lead multigenerational teams. I have gained diverse experience through working in contrasting work cultures in different industries, which has augmented my interpersonal and communication skills. Beyond work hours, I am passionate about contributing to social and economic development and have been part of NGOs working for rural development in North-East India.
