About

I operate where speed, ambiguity, and accountability intersect. At District by Zomato, I handled high-ownership responsibilities in a fast-moving, zero-playbook environment — working at the intersection of operations, growth, and on-ground execution. The role demanded independent decision-making, stakeholder coordination, and rapid problem-solving under pressure. Before that, I worked out of a Cabinet-rank Chairperson’s office, helping draft the Act, Statutes, and DPR for a proposed Skill & Entrepreneurship University in Odisha. In three months, we translated policy vision into governance structure and execution-ready documentation. Earlier at JP Morgan, I entered without a formal finance background and adapted quickly to large-scale, process-heavy systems — managing attrition challenges and operational inefficiencies in high-accountability environments. Across startups, government, and corporate systems, one thing remains consistent: • I step into undefined roles • I reduce chaos into structure • I take ownership beyond designation • I execute without waiting for instructions I’m now looking to work closely with founders and leadership teams where leverage, judgment, and execution matter more than hierarchy. If you're building something ambitious and need someone who can think independently and operate at speed — let’s connect.
