About

My work centers on entering ambiguous environments, early-stage startups, scaling operations, and multi-stakeholder ecosystems, and building structure where none exists. I don’t optimize mature systems; I build the first working version that teams can actually run with. Where this shows up in practice: Chief of Staff | Early-stage Pharma Startup Worked directly with the CEO during a scale-up and financial stress phase. Built operational workflows from scratch, managed vendors, and stabilized day-to-day execution under high ambiguity. This phase shaped my approach to ownership, pressure, and systems-first leadership. Manager – Projects & Business Development | CfHE, IIT Hyderabad Operated across fundraising, execution, and coordination in a MedTech incubation ecosystem. - Led/supported ₹25+ Cr government & CSR proposals - Managed a ₹1.5 Cr CSR pipeline - Facilitated ₹1 Cr+ in medical device deployments - Built internal tracking and reporting systems across startups, corporates, and government stakeholders Systems Consulting | Manufacturing & SMBs (incl. Unique Biotech) Built MIS and debottlenecking systems across Quality, Audit, and Production, functions where poor visibility slows scale. Focused on accountability, operating cadence, and scale without adding headcount. I’m currently a student at Mesa School of Business (PGP in Startup Leadership), adding first-principles strategy and decision frameworks to years of hands-on execution, sharpening how I think about company-building, not resetting my trajectory. What I’m looking for now: Chief of Staff or BizGen roles in deeptech, marketplace, and ops-heavy companies, where I can operate close to core problems and compound judgment, systems depth, and founder context over time. If you’re building something complex from India and need a high-ownership execution partner who brings calm, structure, and follow-through, I’m open to a conversation.
