About

From early on, I knew I wanted to be in marketing, drawn to how data, creativity, and human behavior combine to drive real impact. With a background in Physics, I bring structured thinking and problem-solving to fast-paced marketing challenges. Over the last 4+ years, I’ve worked across education, media, and social sectors, building experience at the intersection of data-driven decision-making and creative strategy. Today, I lead Digital Marketing at Mesa School of Business, managing end-to-end campaigns for PGP programs. My focus is on performance marketing, SEO, and cross-channel strategy; designing top-funnel journeys that drive ROI and meaningful engagement with prospective students. I enjoy operating at the intersection of analytics and creativity: optimizing campaigns through data while shaping ideas that bring a brand’s story to life. I’m most energized by taking ideas from 0-to-1, building marketing campaigns that scale, and contributing to brands that create meaningful impact. Outside work, I keep that curiosity alive through travel, learning new skills, and outdoor challenges, such as completing the Mountaineering Course (BMC) at ABVIMAS, Manali.
