About me

I am a passionate product professional specializing in End-to-End Product Development, Strategic Planning, and Market Execution. With a Master’s in Management Information Systems from Texas A&M University and a Bachelor’s in Computer Science from UPES, India, my strong educational foundation has propelled my career forward.

Driven by a love for creating impactful products, I’ve consistently enhanced user experiences and driven product success. My agile methodologies and customer-centric approaches ensure high-quality products that delight users.

One of my proudest moments was leading the go-to-market strategy for a B2B SaaS leadership development at DDI, which transformed our approach and brought new energy to the team. At Gupshup, I launched AI-driven features that took client engagement to new heights.

I thrive on critical thinking, problem-solving, and leadership. I excel at fostering cross-functional collaboration, improving customer satisfaction, and aligning product features with business goals.

I am excited to drive product innovation, enhance customer experiences, and achieve business objectives as a Product Manager or Business Analyst. Explore my portfolio and let’s connect to discuss potential opportunities and collaborations!
