## Headline

People & Talent \| Programs & 0→1 \| Community Builder \| Founder, The Bangla Collective \| ex\-Stripe

## About

I build things; teams, programs, processes, communities, and occasionally, things that didn’t have a name when I started\. Over the last 5\+ years, I’ve worked across high\-growth startups and global fintech, with People & Talent as my core and a lot of 0→1 along the way\. My work has stretched across hiring, HR programs, people operations, stakeholder management, internal programs and cross\-functional projects\. More recently, I founded The Bangla Collective; a Bengali culture & community platform in Bangalore \- which has pulled me into community building, partnerships, brand, events and building something of my own from scratch\. I’m at my best in fast\-moving environments, solving slightly messy problems with good people\. I like clean processes, honest conversations, high ownership and building calm inside chaos\. If something needs building, fixing, or figuring out; I’m usually interested\.
