About

I’m an automotive professional passionate about building strong markets, high-performing teams, and long-term industry relationships. With experience across sales, service, inspections, and pricing operations, I have developed a 360° understanding of the automotive ecosystem. Currently serving in a leadership role as a State Head, I focus on strategic growth, dealer network expansion, and driving operational excellence. My journey with leading platforms like OLX Autos and Cars24 has helped me master key areas such as dealer management, pricing strategy, negotiation, and market development. I believe real growth comes from combining data-driven decisions with strong on-ground relationships. Beyond targets and numbers, I take pride in mentoring teams, building efficient processes, and creating customer experiences that build trust and long-term value. The automotive industry is evolving rapidly, and I’m excited to be part of that transformation — driving innovation, scaling markets, and delivering measurable results. Always open to connecting with professionals, partners, and leaders who are passionate about shaping the future of mobility.
