Building Canvas - Helping startups get their new office! Ex - Misfits Capital

About

Heading Growth & Partnerships for Canvas Workspace. We provide fully furnished and fully managed workspaces for startups & growing teams. Earlier I was a founding team member at Misfits Capital - a tech platform helping people allocate their money to a quality portfolio of startups. Before Misfits, I spent 3 years at MathWorks (creators of MATLAB and Simulink), focusing on User Experience and Customer Success. I am an MNNIT Allahabad graduate. My entrepreneurial journey began during college, where I actively contributed to the Entrepreneurship Cell and various student organizations. Driven by a passion for problem-solving, I experimented with launching startups to tackle challenges faced by students & got a first-hand experience of building a business. Outside of work, I’m an avid foodie, a sports enthusiast, and an advocate for social causes.
