About

I'm a Strategy professional who thrives at the intersection of ambiguity and execution. I'm currently working in the Founder's Office at Binocs, an AI-driven commercial due diligence firm, driving strategic GTM initiatives. Previously, I've spent 3+ years working across management consulting (ZS Associates), CEO/CHRO offices, and early-stage AI startup, learning how to take vague, high-stakes problems and turn them into structured plans with measurable outcomes. At ZS, I worked with Fortune 500 pharmaceutical clients on GTM strategy, market sizing, and go-to-market execution, managing $20M+ budgets and building the analytical infrastructure that informed C-suite decisions. At IndiaMART, I worked directly with the CHRO to ship a WhatsApp HR chatbot and redesign their ATS. At Tough Tongue AI, I identified a core growth problem with no brief, built an entire companion product from scratch, and scaled it to 6K+ MAU in 2 months. Outside work I play guitar and keyboard, which honestly taught me more about iteration and patience than any case study did. Open to conversations. Feel free to reach out.
