About

I help companies make sharper bets on growth, AI, and transformation currently as a Team Lead at Accenture Strategy & Consulting, focused on Data, AI, and Infrastructure. The work I've enjoyed most sits at the intersection of strategy and execution: scoping a sovereign AI venture from market sizing to carve-out planning, building an investment POV on cell & gene therapy logistics for a private equity client, mapping a hydrogen fleet's TCO against BEV and ICE alternatives, and identifying $35M in cost-out opportunities for a global telecom. I've also led KPI architecture and value-realization tracking for transformation programs in life sciences and energy - the unglamorous but genuinely important part of any program. On the side, I'm shaping an AI-powered PowerPoint capability for Accenture's Gen AI offering - a small but satisfying intersection of product thinking and the daily reality of consulting work. Before Accenture, I was a Senior Associate Consultant at Bain, where I covered commercial due diligence, digital growth, and clean-energy infrastructure. I'm an ISB PGP grad (Strategy & Operations) and a Chemical Engineer from Panjab University, and I spend some weekends advising early-stage founders on GTM and ops. Sectors: AI & Tech, Pharma & Life Sciences, Energy, Telecom, Consumer Goods, Banking, Space Tech. Open to conversations on Corporate Strategy, AI productization, Analytics, and PE/VC-side diligence work.
