What I'm looking for

I seek product roles where I can lead AI/consumer tech or fintech products, drive data‑driven strategy, mentor teams, and deliver measurable business outcomes.

I am an experienced Product Manager with ~7 years building and scaling products across fintech, consumer tech and AI, focused on defining product vision, driving roadmaps, and commercializing solutions.

At Samsung Research I defined multimodal AI assistant experiences for head‑mounted devices, led market and user research, compiled datasets, authored patents, and launched Spatial Photos and Video for VR. At Paytm Insurance I led private and commercial motor insurance product initiatives, delivering a 25% conversion uplift and 40% improvement in renewals.

Previously at Bain & Company I managed internal benchmarking platforms, reduced manual effort through analytics, supported client engagements across retail and operations, and led recruiting and training efforts. I excel at cutting through ambiguity, using data to drive decisions, and integrating cross‑functional teams to deliver outcomes.
