About

I help businesses grow — through sharper positioning, stronger client relationships, and revenue strategies that actually stick. Currently working in B2B sales and marketing at Kerakoll India, where I manage a portfolio of 40+ clients across the construction chemicals space. In under a year, I've grown repeat business by 20% and taken portfolio revenue past ₹50 lakhs through structured cross-selling, upselling, and post-sales engagement — not just by chasing targets, but by understanding what clients actually need. Before this, I spent a summer with the Govt. of Odisha's MSME Department (alongside EY), analysing ₹17.5 Cr. in startup grants across 938 companies — designing pitch decks, identifying performance gaps, and translating data into decisions that moved money faster. My background is a bit unusual — B.Tech in Electrical Engineering, then an MBA in Marketing & IT from XIM University. That combination means I'm equally comfortable reading a P&L, running a CRM workflow, or presenting to a room full of architects and engineers. What I'm moving toward: Brand Management and Product Marketing roles where I can own the full picture — positioning, portfolio strategy, and growth — not just one piece of it. If you're building a brand that needs someone who brings both analytical rigour and commercial instinct, let's talk.
