About

I study how Indians buy, and why they do it. I’ve worked closely with founders of F&B startups, restaurant brands, and Shark Tank featured companies, as well as corporate leaders in retail, helping them build personal brands that drive both visibility and revenue for their businesses. By shaping their narratives and scaling their social media presence, I’ve seen firsthand how consumer perception, storytelling, and brand strategy come together to build trust and influence buying decisions. Before that, I spent over three years in agency marketing, leading campaigns for B2B SaaS and D2C brands across India, the US, the UK, and Germany. That experience gave me a front row seat to how different audiences think, what drives discovery, and how the smallest behavioral cue can shift conversion or loyalty. It’s where I learned that consumer psychology isn’t confined to one industry, it’s a pattern that repeats across them all. That’s where my curiosity for consumer psychology, brand strategy, and culture began from watching what actually moves people to buy, share, and believe. If you build for the Indian consumer, or want to understand them better, you’ll probably find a few useful insights here. Let’s connect.
