About

With deep expertise in building strategic partnerships and managing product lifecycles, my journey in the insurance sector has been transformative. At Paytm, steering the insurance vertical, I apply a blend of fintech acumen and customer relationship management to navigate the complexities of the Consumer App led digital insurance marketplace. Previously, as Chief Manager at ICICI Lombard, I led the 'IL Take Care' app and insurance products for corporate clients, shaping innovative go-to-market strategies and driving key metrics for success. My focus remains on leveraging technology to redefine the insurance experience, ensuring that our products and services resonate with the needs of our diverse customer base.
