About

Most companies don’t fail because they lack ambition. They fail because they lack clarity in their numbers. For more than two decades, I’ve been building and scaling businesses across fintech, payments, and enterprise technology—helping companies move to meaningful revenue. I’ve had the privilege of leading enterprise growth at companies like Cashfree Payments, Razorpay, and Mswipe Technologies, working closely with founders, CFOs, and CXOs to solve complex business problems and build scalable revenue engines. Across these journeys, the pattern has been consistent: High-growth companies generate enormous amounts of data. But leadership teams still struggle to understand what the numbers are actually telling them. Spreadsheets everywhere. Fragmented systems. Delayed decisions. That insight led me to co-found DataHQ.ai. At DataHQ, we’re building a financial intelligence platform for modern businesses. helping companies understand: • What is driving growth • Where variances are coming from • What actions leaders should take next All in one unified command center for financial performance. Because the future of finance isn’t reporting what happened. It’s knowing why it happened and what to do next. If you're building a high-growth company and still relying on spreadsheets to understand financial performance — we should talk.
