About

I am a Finance & Business Development professional with a BBA in Applied Economics and a track record of driving multi-million rupee revenue growth in India's top financial institutions. Throughout my career at HDFC Bank and Paytm, I have specialized in bridging the gap between complex financial products and client needs. At HDFC Bank, I spearheaded initiatives that generated ¹1.2 Cr ($150K) in revenue and grew the client base by 20% in a single quarter. My current work at Valeo Health ME focuses on financial data integrity, where I’ve improved data accuracy by 30% to ensure flawless financial reporting. I combine the 'hustle' of Fintech business development with the analytical rigour of Applied Economics to help organizations scale their market presence. Key Career Milestones: • Revenue Growth: Delivered $150K ($1.2 Cr) growth at HDFC Bank through targeted financial solutions. • Process Optimization: Reduced the HDFC sales cycle by 15% and cut data errors by 25% at Valeo Health. • Market Expansion: Scaled merchant onboarding at Paytm through aggressive market analysis and engagement strategies. I am currently looking to transition into a Senior Business Development or Financial Advisory role where I can leverage my experience in the Indian BFSI Sector.
