About

I like Growth Products & Operations. I thrive at the intersection of strategy, execution, and growth; building and scaling products that drive impact. From leading high-growth initiatives to bootstrapping and selling a fintech startup, I’ve shaped products across marketplaces, fintech, real estate, and travel in India, SEA, and the U.S. Whether in startups or large organisations, I focus on creating real value and balancing vision with a goal to make long term sustainable business.
