At ShareChat, I’m building AI Premium Sharing and ads-supported microdrama as Director Product. The work has contributed to gains in retention, time spent, organic installs, and DAUs.

I co-founded VivaHIT and served as CEO, raising $550k at a $4 million post-money valuation. I helped grow the platform to 20,000+ wedding registrations and built a task management tool for wedding planners and vendors.

Earlier at ShareChat, I worked on product and growth, including new features, feed logic, and expansion to 10 Indian languages. At OkCredit, I improved user activation and referrals; at Branch.co, I worked on lending products and credit underwriting.
