About

E-commerce professional with 7+ years of experience across Amazon, Flipkart, Swiggy, and L'Oréal—specializing in category management, business growth, and program management. Currently leading Bedding - one of the largest categories within Amazon India’s Home BU. I’ve led topline ownership, brand scale ups, selection expansion, and other horizontal charters — delivering strong YoY growth, improving customer experience metrics, and enabling structural improvements across visibility and speed. Previously managed pan-India selection strategy across 8 categories at Amazon, building programs that enable the seller ecosystem on Amazon. My background also includes D2C scale-up and category management at Flipkart, AOV improvement strategy at Swiggy, and early brand marketing experience at L’Oréal and Mondelez. I bring an analytical, action-oriented approach to solving complex business problems—with deep experience across platform, brand, and customer lenses.
