I've previously worked as a Senior Product Manager with Apollo 24\|7, India’s fastest\-growing healthcare startup & a subsidiary of the healthcare group \- Apollo Hospitals\. Being one of the core members of the team to take Apollo 24\|7 's medicine delivery business from 'zero' to 'one' to 'ten' stage\. I have experience building and improving products in e\-commerce, logistics, supply chain, and hyperlocal\. Before Apollo, I worked for two years as an associate consultant at L&T Infotech in their Digital Experience practice\. I am an avid football and basketball fan\.
