About

I work with SaaS, AI, and fintech companies navigating cross-border expansion between India and the US, helping them enter new markets, build strategic partnerships, and create momentum through relationship-led and event-led go-to-market. Over the last 18+ years, I’ve operated at the intersection of GTM strategy, partnerships, and ecosystem building across the US–India corridor. My experience spans launching premium global brands in India such as American Express Centurion and Formula 1 to working closely with growth-stage technology companies as they expand internationally and deepen their market presence. What I focus on today is less about playbooks and more about practical market execution: •⁠ ⁠Designing cross-border market entry strategies that are grounded in local context •⁠ ⁠Building high-impact partnerships that accelerate credibility, distribution, and access •⁠ ⁠Using event-led and community-led GTM to open doors that traditional sales cannot •⁠ ⁠Supporting brand evangelism and in-market visibility in ways that compound over time •⁠ ⁠Connecting founders and leadership teams into the right ecosystems, not just networks Through GTM Unbound, I work as a strategic partner to growth-stage companies helping them move from market interest to real traction across geographies. Most of my work is hands-on, relationship-driven, and shaped by what actually happens on the ground between founders, partners, customers, and ecosystems. If you’re expanding across borders and want a thoughtful, founder-led perspective, I’m always open to a conversation. You can DM me here or reach me at team@gtmunbound.com.
