About

At Zomato, I work on building and scaling the live entertainment vertical for the leading food delivery and restaurant discovery platform in India. I am always on the lookout for challenging and ambiguous business problems that require creative and data-driven solutions. With an undergraduate business degree from Delhi University and multiple internships in digital marketing, media strategy, and account management, I have developed strong skills in negotiation, business development, and media buying. I have also gained experience in reporting and analytics, automation, and data extraction as an Associate at The D. E. Shaw Group, where I supported the recruitment activities and processes for the global investment and technology firm. I am an avid learner, exploring exciting avenues to learn and grow, and interested in learning more about startups and venture capital.
