Turning Market Insights into Product Decisions | Strategy & Ops @ Zepto | Ex-Data Product Team @ AI Palette | Aspiring Associate Product Manager

About

I operate at the intersection of strategy, data, and product thinking. Currently, I'm part of Zepto's central Strategy & Operations team, where I work on strategy across multiple clusters and cities. I use operational data to identify bottlenecks, prioritize business problems, and collaborate with Cluster Managers, Senior Cluster Managers, City Heads, and cross-functional teams to drive better execution in a fast-paced quick-commerce environment. Previously at AI Palette, I worked closely with Product Managers, Data Science, and Engineering teams to translate market signals into structured inputs that informed product discovery, feature prioritization, and roadmap discussions for global FMCG brands. Across both experiences, I've built strengths in strategic thinking, data analysis, stakeholder management, and structured problem-solving—breaking down complex business challenges, validating opportunities through data, and turning insights into actionable decisions.
