About

As a driven entrepreneur, I've experienced the thrill of launching and leading startups, each with its unique challenges and lessons: πŸš€ In my first venture, I co-founded and successfully launched food delivery venture 'Food Taxi' during the COVID quarantine, turning a modest INR 40,000 investment into INR 1,200,000 in revenue within just 6 months and made a profitable exit. This experience showcased my business acumen, strategic planning, and leadership skills. πŸ’‘ Later, I co-founded 'Byta,' a fintech startup aiming to simplify teen payments under parental control. Although faced with legal constraints, we piloted innovative solutions in closed environments. πŸ“Š Additionally, I've honed my skills as a storyteller and presentation strategist during my time at Prezantim, understanding the significance of #presentation matters and #storytelling matters Let's connect and explore how we can collaborate or share insights. I'm passionate about entrepreneurship, Artificial Intelligence, and the art of storytelling.
