About

I’ve always been driven by one core belief: that technology should simplify our lives, not complicate them. This philosophy has guided my career, whether I was building products or scaling businesses. At KreditBee, I spearheaded strategic initiatives that significantly expanded our reach and product offerings, from launching Checkout Finance to multile other banking products like LAP. I saw firsthand how technology could democratize access to essential services like credit and improve consumer lives. On the flip side, at Udaan, I worked on a massive, B2B scale, managing supply and demand for fashion and launching new categories. This taught me a great deal about optimizing complex systems and the power of efficient operations. This is the vision behind Monova, where we are building an AI fashion companion that simplifies the entire fashion journey. We've built Nova, an AI fashion agent who acts as your personal companion, guiding you on what to wear from your own clothes or shoppable links from the internet. It understands who you are, your style, and your preferences, and learns from every interaction to get better over time. If you’re passionate about the future of fashion, AI, or building brands that truly understand their users, I'd love to connect.
