About

I am currently part of the product team at Uber which works on growing riders for the mobility business at Uber. I completed my MBA at the Wharton School where I made lifelong friends while trying to learn about different business disciplines. I triple majored in Finance, Entrepreneurship, and Operations and Decisions. Earlier, I explored my deep interest in engineering and technology while getting my B. Tech. in Mechanical Engineering from IIT Delhi. During my MBA, I worked as a Product Manager Intern with Cruise's consumer division, enabling a safer future with driverless cars. I specifically worked on creating 0-1 consumer experiences for driverless deliveries. Pre-MBA, I was at 1MG (now a Tata company) in various capacities - most recently as a product manager with the e-pharmacy and omnichannel retail divisions and most significantly as an entrepreneur-in-residence where I set up their first on-ground healthcare delivery business - vaccination (100,000+ vaccinations done) from scratch. Before Tata 1mg, I learned the basics of businesses as a management consultant at A.T. Kearney where I was awarded a fast-track promotion two cycles ahead of the actual term. As a person, I am enthusiastic about science & technology, story-based video games, and pondering about our time on planet Earth.
