</About Me>

I've been fortunate enough to work at interesting startups ​& large corporates in India. Any combination of new ideas, ​technology, and music always excites me. This excitement ​led me to start OKListen in 2012 which was acquired by ​AWAL in May 2023. I also incubated Beatroute in 2021 and ​have angel invested in a few startups that are driven by ​passionate founders. I absolutely love running, which has ​been the core of my transformation, both physically & ​professionally. The lockdown helped me discover coffee ​brewing at home and these days, a good cup of pourover ​coffee is my new joy.


While you are here, do read about AERF which does some ​amazing work in forest conservation in the western ghats & ​ABBF which is championing disability inclusion in India.
