## Headline

Strategy and Transactions @ EY\-Parthenon \| ex\-Tata, Bain \| IIMC, IITM \| CFA L1

## About

I thrive at the intersection of strategy, due diligence, value creation, and restructuring, working closely with PE\- and VC\-backed businesses on transaction and post\-deal priorities\. I hold an MBA from IIM Calcutta and a BTech from IIT Madras, combining strong analytical rigor with an execution\-focused mindset\. My experience includes CDDs, growth and GTM assessment, unit economics and margin improvement, operating model design, and post\-merger integration, primarily across SaaS, technology, and tech\-enabled services\. I partner with leadership teams and investors to translate strategy into measurable commercial and financial outcomes\. I am motivated by high\-ambiguity, high\-impact environments, from investment decision support to scaling products and businesses, where structured problem solving, data\-driven judgment, and speed of execution matter\.
