About

I didn't take the straight road. And I'm glad I didn't. From a product lab at SINE IIT Bombay to founding my own startup to Chief of Staff at Nosh Robotics, every role has shaped how I think about building startups. The best operators aren't just executors, they're translators. Between vision and reality. Between founders and teams. My sweet spot? Consumer Tech & Consumer Brands, where great products meet real people. Founders, investors, operators, let's connect.

Distribution beats product, at early stage, community-led growth outperforms any paid channel
Build the simplest version of your product first, we over-engineered before we found PMF
Fundraising validation ≠ market validation, grants and incubations don't guarantee PMF
