IIT Delhi graduate with experience across ops, strategy, and building things from scratch. Over time, I’ve found myself naturally drawn to problems where things aren’t working as expected, figuring out what’s breaking, what users actually need, and how to improve outcomes in a meaningful way. Through years in the JEE ecosystem, I realized students don't struggle with knowledge as much as execution under pressure. I built LastLapJEE to solve this exact problem, taking it from a zero-budget demand validation experiment (130+ waitlist) to shipping and iterating with real users. Outside of work, I follow sports, enjoy reading, and like exploring how products are built and scaled. Currently exploring APM/PM opportunities across EdTech, FinTech, SaaS, and consumer products.
