About

I've spent the last 5+ years helping businesses grow revenue, build sales systems, and scale customer acquisition across SaaS, FinTech, EdTech, and AV technology. Today, I lead Residential Business Solutions at Qubix, where I work with architects, interior designers, builders, consultants, and homeowners to design technology experiences that transform how people live inside their homes. My work goes far beyond selling products. I help clients understand, experience, and implement luxury technology solutions including: • Smart Home Automation • Home Cinemas & Media Rooms • Multi-room Audio Systems • Acoustic Design & Treatment • Luxury AV Experiences • Smart Lighting & Controls • Security & Surveillance Solutions • Integrated Residential Technology One of the most exciting parts of my role is helping clients experience technology before they invest in it. Through our Bangalore Experience Centre, I guide architects, designers, and homeowners through immersive demonstrations of solutions that are rarely experienced together under one roof in India. Alongside customer consulting, I drive business growth through: • Strategic partnerships • Architect & designer engagement • Sales strategy and pipeline development • Customer experience design • Revenue growth initiatives • New market development I enjoy sitting at the intersection of technology, design, business, and customer experience. If you're building premium residential spaces and want technology to become a differentiator rather than an afterthought, let's connect. 📩 DM me to schedule a personalised technology experience at our Bangalore Experience Centre.
