About

I’m an entrepreneur with a deep interest in building businesses that solve meaningful problems, especially those that sit at the intersection of people, place, and purpose. Over the years, my journey has taken me through leadership roles in Human Resources, Operations, and Organizational design across India, Middle East and the US. What’s remained constant is a belief in the power of thoughtfully built ecosystems, where businesses can grow, individuals can thrive, and communities are uplifted in the process. At Mikro Grafeio, our mission is to make work accessible and inclusive in India’s emerging cities, by creating agile, affordable, and socially rooted workspaces. We partner with local stakeholders, adopt a capex-light model and work to unlock economic opportunities in places that are often overlooked. Our work is not just about infrastructure, it’s about creating an enabling environment for job creation, women’s participation, and local development, while staying commercially sound and operationally scalable.
