Building for the new age consumer | ex Uber, Meesho, Grab, Flipkart | IIT Kharagpur

About

Spent the last decade building consumer products for customers around the globe. From reporting metrics for Flipkart's first Big Billion Day, leading the Superapp expansion at Grab, seeding content commerce at Meesho, to growing travel verticals at Uber – I've had the privilege of working with pioneering companies alongside some of the best growth and product people in the market. Back to being a builder these days. Impatience is a virtue.
