About

With over a decade of experience in Business Management and Enterprise Sales, I have built a strong track record of forging lasting client relationships, driving Go-to-Market strategies, and managing large-scale partnerships, particularly within the Fintech and Consumer/B2B tech sectors. In my current role at Manipal Business Solutions, I lead the delivery of innovative technology solutions tailored to the needs of Banks and Fintechs. Prior to this, I managed strategic partnerships at Idemia, working with Fintechs, Neobanks, and BaaS providers to drive the adoption of advanced payment card solutions. At twid, I played a key role in expanding the "Pay with Rewards" program, driving its acceptance across both online and offline commerce. My time at HDFC Bank and Paytm was focused on scaling multiple business segments, overseeing P&L responsibilities, and contributing to substantial business growth through strategic leadership and operational excellence. I hold an MBA from IIM Rohtak and a B.Tech from GEC Bhopal. Additionally, I co-founded CATmentors, a platform dedicated to helping MBA aspirants prepare for GD-WAT/PI, where I developed content and built a network of resources, though I scaled it down in my second year to focus on my studies. A driven optimist, hard worker, and fast learner, I excel at taking on challenges, fostering collaboration, and delivering measurable, impactful results. My passion lies in continuous growth, both personally and professionally, and I’m always eager to tackle new opportunities to innovate and lead in the fintech space.
