About

My journey in startup ecosystem started with PedalStart as an Content and Graphic Intern working remotely from Jammu and one thing happens after other and I became one of the Core Team Members of India's fast moving startup community, where everyday was a new learning. The journey has been full of ups and downs but a lot of learnings and experiences of the industry which helped in building more than 2500 founders community, 100+ mentors and investors and a Portfolio of 30+ accelerated startups. The best thing I have learned is, that consistency, intent, and effort can take you places.

Every day at PedalStart is about building what the Indian startup ecosystem doesn’t yet have, a space where founders are backed not just with capital, but with conviction, community, and clarity.
My role blends startups, brand building, and investment functions, helping shape the journey of founders and investors across our ecosystem:
Designing and managing structured cohort programs that have helped startups validate, grow, and raise capital
Building PedalStart’s voice across digital and offline channels
Driving strategic partnerships with ecosystem players, funds, and corporates to strengthen our platform’s reach and impact.
Leading the curation of high-impact startup experiences that drive visibility, validation, and funding opportunities for early-stage founders.
Supporting founders hands-on across multiple functions, from go-to-market strategy to funding preparation and investor connects.
