Building & Scaling MVPs for Startups | CTO at AscendStudio
Hello and welcome to my profile! I'm a co-founder at AscendStudio, a technologist at heart, and a passionate advocate for startups. My journey began as an entrepreneur where I faced challenges, tasted failure, but most importantly, learned invaluable lessons. It was these experiences that honed my skills and fueled my passion for technology and startups.
In my career, I've worked extensively with early-stage startups, helping them build and scale their apps and web apps. I've been in the trenches, I've navigated the startup terrain, and now, I'm dedicated to utilizing my experiences to assist other startups in their journey from zero to one.
At AscendStudio, we're not just a service provider. We're a partner, sharing in your vision, your passion, and your success. We're here to help transform your ideas into viable, scalable MVPs, setting you on the path to success. Let's connect and ascend together.

"The eChai platform has been super valuable for me - it has helped me gain a deeper understanding of domains in the startup and tech ecosystem. What stands out most is the celebration of knowledge, professional growth, and entrepreneurship - it’s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."
