About

I work at the intersection of education, operations, and scale. Currently a Senior Program Manager at Scaler, where I manage large-scale online learning operations across multiple programs including the Neovarsity Master's degree and enterprise training partnerships. My work focuses on ensuring programs run smoothly at scale — from classroom operations and instructor networks to program delivery and learner outcomes. Today I oversee a distributed ecosystem that includes: • 140+ remote instructors • 4 major online programs • A team of 7 program operations professionals Some highlights from my journey so far: • Recognized as a “Needle Mover” for driving high-impact initiatives • Promoted within 7 months for operational leadership and program delivery • Contributed to 200+ learner graduations across programs • Generated ₹10M+ revenue through strategic program transitions • Organized Scaler’s inaugural graduation ceremony Earlier, I was part of the founding team at Applied Roots, where we built the GATE Applied Course into a market-leading product with 40+ Top 100 GATE rankers and a 90+ Net Promoter Score (NPS). I’m particularly interested in building scalable education systems that combine strong operations, quality instruction, and meaningful learner outcomes. Always happy to connect with people working in EdTech, learning operations, and program leadership.
