About

I work at the intersection of brand strategy, culture and communication. Over the last 5 years, I’ve worked across fashion, beauty, FMCG, fintech and lifestyle brands, helping shape brand narratives, launch brands in new markets, and build culturally relevant communication systems. I’ve led end-to-end brand thinking. From consumer insight and positioning to campaign planning, creative direction and narrative consistency — partnering closely with founders, marketing teams and creative partners. My experience spans both agency and brand-launch environments, including leading the India launch and narrative strategy for brands like Zudio and Episoft, and working on established names such as Maybelline, Plum Goodness, Dabur Vatika, Skybags, American Tourister, Sprite, Jameson and WishCare. I’m now looking to move in-house on the brand side, particularly with fashion or beauty brands, where I can own brand communication more deeply — building long-term brand meaning, not just campaigns.
