I found my passion when I began my career in Product, a practice that allows me to combine my creative and analytical sides in a way that brings out the best in both. I consider myself a visionary, and I thrive on both strategic planning and diving into the technical details to solve everyday problems.
Having been born, raised, lived, and worked in different countries, my diverse background has allowed me to assimilate into various cultures. I was born in India and spent a significant part of my childhood in Malaysia and Singapore before returning to India.
I completed my Bachelor's Degree in Engineering at the Manipal Institute of Technology and worked in India, London, and Finland before moving to the United States in 2006. During my time as an IBM consultant, I had the opportunity to live and work in six different states across the country. However, I now call Southern California my home.
Apart from my passion for building customer-centric products, I have several interests that keep me engaged. I relish reading books and watching documentaries, and some of my favorite works include "Never Split the Difference," "Shoe Dog," and "Sapiens." My love for movies has helped me hone my storytelling skills, while my fascination with psychology has given me a deeper insight into human emotions. I also cherish going on backcountry hikes and camping trips, experimenting with cooking, and exploring my artistic side through painting.
