The Story So Far

Product leader. Startup mentor. Builder of things that scale.

I grew up curious about how systems work - mechanical ones at first, then business ones. I studied Mechanical Engineering at PEC Chandigarh, where a Lean Six Sigma project at Tata Motors gave me my first taste of process thinking and earned a Best Project award.

An MBA at the Indian Institute of Foreign Trade sharpened my instincts for markets, strategy, and international business. Along the way, internships at GE Healthcare (where I cut decision-making time from 240 to 10 minutes through data automation) and Pitney Bowes grounded me in the real-world messiness of building things that work.

The bulk of my career has been spent building and scaling products at companies where the stakes - and the data volumes - are massive.

I was among 2 Indians (and 55 globally) selected for Maersk's Go With Maersk Global Leadership Program - completing modules across four continents with CXO-level executives. These experiences shaped how I think about product, leadership, and building for diverse markets.

Ship, then iterate

The best product insights come from real users, not from roadmap debates. Get it out, measure it, learn from it. Speed of learning is the only sustainable advantage.

Mentorship compounds

The best thing a leader can do is make the people around them better. I mentor because someone did it for me - and the returns compound far beyond any single product launch.

Data informs, humans decide

AI and analytics surface the patterns. But the hardest product decisions - the ones that matter - still need human judgement, empathy, and the willingness to be wrong.
