About

'To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.' -- Winston Churchill. This quote by Churchill has always resonated with me, as it connects with two deep drives which I have: my openness to doing new things and gaining new experiences and working towards my goals and persevering till I achieve success. This has consistently informed my life choices. What helps me stay motivated to do my job is seeing the impact my work creates in lives of millions of people and the constant challenges I solve for from a customer standpoint. Currently, I am a part of Swiggy Instamart's central planning & performance team wherein I am responsible for designing, roll-out and driving process adherence for ~ 400 dark stores pan India. I contribute towards Instamart's program management, product developments and process improvement verticals.. Prior to this, I worked as an analyst in Amazon Fresh's product team. I helped to deliver data driven solutions to solve complex business problems for Amazon India's food retail arm, ARIPL. With a predilection towards science and technology I chose to pursue, Bachelor in Technology from Delhi Technological University (Formerly Delhi College of Engineering). My stint at DTU gave me opportunities for holistic development. In addition to rigorous academics, I learnt to work in teams with people from diverse backgrounds . Outside of work, I indulge myself into a myriad of hobbies ranging from swimming, yoga, reading fiction books, mixology , badminton, babysitting and playing musical instruments. Please feel free to reach out to me to discuss Jefferey Archer's books, thriller tv series or to engage in a debate over Indian politics & world history.
