I like knowing who I'm talking to.
So there, what do you want to know?
I was an introverted kid with below-average grades in school. Tried getting into IIT & didn't happen, ended up doing civil engineering instead. Started developing an interest in marketing, design, photography, and stand-up comedy. Began applying these in events, fests, committees, and competitions. During my four years in college, I was more out of class than in it. Engineering helped build my gut instinct, something I've relied on ever since. The first decision that came from that gut was not doing a master's or an MBA, but instead pursuing things that made me curious.
Here's to the people who made it fun.
Current
Looking for an early stage startup where I can own the chaos, not just manage it.
Growth, Shoffr
Met Vikas Bardia, founder of Shoffr. One conversation later I packed up and moved from Mumbai to Bangalore. Worked across revenue, sales, client management, and operations. Crossed over into product and CX to build internal tools.
Founder
I started Socialnocap, a bootstrapped creative agency. Built it from zero, kept it profitable, ran it for three years with a lean team of five. We worked across sectors with D2C brands on content, social media, photoshoots, UI/UX, and branding.
Freelancing
Within a year I was managing 7 to 10 D2C brands end to end, from conceptualizing to creation and I realized quickly that the one man setup had a ceiling.
Social Media Intern
After graduating as a civil engineer, I wanted to get into marketing. I cold reached my way into my first social media internship at a local café in Mumbai.
