I'm a product and growth leader focused on building distribution-first, capital-efficient and risk-aligned growth engines for consumer technology and fintech products. Over the last 10+ years, I have worked across credit cards, lending, payments, wealth and Media Tech, influencing 100M+ cumulative users through hands-on operating roles and product consulting. I’ve driven 2.5M+ credit card acquisitions, enabled 25M+ credit checks, built high-impact referral systems, and managed ₹150 Cr+ in annual growth budgets in highly regulated environments. I was part of the zero-to-billion-dollar journey at OneCard, where I helped scale acquisition, onboarding, lifecycle, referrals and distribution from the ground up. I was the first growth hire at FPL Technologies, where I helped build & grow OneScore and OneCard from their earliest stages, and later led the build and GTM strategy for Wizely in my final stint at FPL. My role covered early product decisions, growth strategy, onboarding systems, referral loops and go-to-market execution - helping take products from early traction to large scale adoption while keeping CAC well below industry benchmarks. My work sits at the intersection of product and marketing, spanning ASO, SEO, product-led growth, funnel design, underwriting-aligned acquisition, lifecycle automation, referral programs, repayment journeys and portfolio quality. I've owned large growth P&Ls, built strong MarTech and analytics foundations and consistently focused on durable unit economics rather than vanity growth. Currently, I lead Growth for New Business Units (Mutual Funds & Lending) at Angel One, where I'm focused on building growth engines that can scale profitably at strong unit economics. The work spans acquisition, lifecycle and distribution-always with an eye on long-term sustainability rather than short-term spikes. Alongside operating roles, I've worked as a product and growth consultant with teams at Kiwi Credit Card, Visit Healthcare, Cashbook and Angel One (past engagements) - helping them design GTM strategies, onboarding flows, growth funnels, referral programs & analytics frameworks before and during scale. I enjoy working with founders, investors, and operators who care about building products that last - especially where the challenge is turning early momentum into compounding, defensible businesses.
