Director - Sutherland | IIM Lucknow

Ahmedabad

I love to dig into customer problems and solve them with modern technology. I create, scale and optimize business portfolios that matter. To accomplish this, I focus on delivering key outcomes, building amazing teams and quickly adapting to new learnings.

I have enjoyed many executive positions throughout my career in Strategy, Business Development, Consultative Sales, Product Development, Product Marketing, and Project Management. My personal, and professional experiences, and MBA have taught me the following about myself:

I can successfully scale up businesses from $50M to $1B in revenue.
• I put the customer at the center of all that I do.
• I excel at the execution of big ideas with given constraints
• My gut instinct is good but I seek data for my decisions

I can align, lead and grow world-class Product/Project teams from 10 to 100 people.
• I love to win, but helping the team win gives me greater joy
• I speak tech and execute
• I tell great narratives that motivate
• The buck always stops with me

I educate, refine and drive myself to be a better person
• I am constantly learning because I never settle
• I stay calm when faced with adversity
• I focus on making high-quality decisions

I enjoy meeting new people and hearing new perspectives. I love photography, stand-up comedy, and theatre. I have tried my hands at a few open mics, played small roles on stage in regional dramas, and sold my clicks at a couple of photo exhibitions across the country. Reach out if you want to talk to me about emerging tech, Industry trends, F1, or cricket.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”

"At DevX.Work, we’ve greatly benefited from our association with eChai. Their events and networking forums have connected us with high-potential startups, ecosystem leaders, and innovation-driven professionals — many of whom have become valuable partners, collaborators, and even clients. What stands out most is the openness and accessibility of the community — whether you're an early-stage founder or an experienced entrepreneur, eChai provides a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and grow. It's more than just a network — it's a catalyst for real, collaborative growth. We’re proud to be part of the eChai community. Highly recommended for any organization aiming to grow within the startup space."
