About
I’ve always been drawn to how technology can connect people and elevate everyday experiences. As a design leader, my role goes beyond crafting thoughtful solutions; it’s about shaping environments where meaningful change can take root.
Growing up in Mumbai, India’s culturally vibrant financial capital, I bring a global perspective and a strong foundation in creative problem-solving to everything I do.
