About: I have 12+ years of investing and operating experience - across stages (idea to growth), sectors (fintech, commerce, logistics, SaaS and more) and regions (India, Southeast Asia and Europe). I am a first bench student of business strategies and find history of businesses intriguing. My special powers are developing deep market intelligence to support founders and building lasting relationships. You can read more about me and my journey here.

Aside from startups and investing, I have many muses including photography, astronomy (the moon 😍), robotics, hiking/trekking, travel, food and more.

📍 Bangalore / Mumbai, India
