Passion about entrepreneurship and determination to create something of value motivates me to work each day!

I am a first generation entrepreneur who has been in the digital marketing and information technology space for more than 14 years. I have served more than 250 clients across the globe and helped solve their business & marketing problems. I learn and evolve each day as the field demands of me. I enjoy working in a team and strongly believe in winning together with all the stakeholders involved. In my new venture, CoChamps, I continue to focus on the same and happily serve others.

I am a Mechanical Engineer by chance and a Post Graduate in Business Entrepreneurship from EDII by choice. I failed in my first startup and incorporated the learnings in the second venture. I am a startup enthusiast and have been active in the entrepreneurial community. I believe in celebrating failures and encourage youth to start early, fail, learn & start again till they succeed.

I have had the honour to serve as a Secretary at the Entrepreneurship Development Insitute of India Alumni Association for more than 5 years.

I am also a spiritual seeker & certified soul healer and conduct meditation & healing sessions to serve humanity. I emphasise on living a life for a higher purpose. My purpose in life is to serve all beings by spreading love & light of the divine through my thoughts, words & actions and of course, add value to the lives of people & businesses through my entrepreneurial initiatives.

If you are someone who needs help with digital marketing or business consulting, or simply wants to have a conversation about living a meaningful life, it would be my pleasure to connect with you! :)

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."

“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”
