About

Strategy consultant with 7 years of experience across Kenvue, Deloitte, and Novartis. I have worked on complex commercial problems that do not have obvious answers: where a manufacturer should expand, how to build the case for an AI programme, and how to transform trade promotion decisioning across global markets. My work spans market entry, AI-led growth transformation, trade optimisation, and policy advisory across FMCG, pharma, and manufacturing. What I enjoy most is the diagnostic work: understanding why a business problem exists before jumping to solutions. Whether it is identifying an operating model inefficiency holding back a commercial team or uncovering data gaps that markets did not know they had, the most valuable contribution is often reframing the question, not just answering it. Currently leading Revenue Growth Management transformation at Kenvue across global markets. Previously Senior Consultant at Deloitte. IIM Lucknow MBA. Based in Mumbai. This is the kind of work I have spent 6+ years doing, and where I am looking to grow in a problem-solving environment.
