About

I don’t enjoy PowerPoints about business — I enjoy building it on the ground. I am an early-stage operator with ~3 years of experience across GTM, sales, partnerships, and operations, currently pursuing my PGP at Mesa School of Business (Class of 2026). My core strength lies in building 0→1 journeys for brands — setting up new markets, establishing the first revenue engine, and creating repeatable execution. Selected work and impact: - Drove ₹1.7Cr+ in cumulative revenue across edtech and D2C businesses through hands-on GTM and sales execution - Played a key role in setting up and scaling a business unit from 0→1 at Toprankers; personally closed 140+ high-value enrollments, contributing ₹75L+ in revenue - At a T.I.M.E. franchise, led counselling, conversions, and institutional partnerships contributing to ₹1Cr+ in revenue - Built and launched a D2C perfume brand, scaling it to ₹3.6L in revenue and 350+ customers within 2 months - Won 1st place at IIM Calcutta’s “Pitchers” for a startup idea; also shortlisted for funding and advanced mentoring by IIT Patna and Ekara and few more national competitions. Areas of strength: - Go-to-market strategy and execution - Sales, distribution, and partnerships - Funnel optimisation and conversion improvement - On-ground execution in early-stage environments I am now exploring Founder’s Office / Growth / Business roles where I can work closely with founders to build new initiatives, establish scalable GTM engines, and scale early traction.
