Chief of Staff and growth strategist using analytics to drive revenue, retention, and go-to-market execution.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Chief of Staff focused on Business Development & Growth, using competitive analysis, data-driven insights, and stakeholder-ready planning to unlock new revenue and strengthen customer retention. Most recently, I identified a ₹20 Cr revenue opportunity by analyzing 20+ competitors and building a capacity plan for the cattle feed vertical.
In earlier roles, I scaled brands and sales through regional rebranding and go-to-market execution, and improved operational performance by tightening workflows, vendor follow-ups, and SOPs. I also bring consulting-grade decision analytics experience—improving ROAS, shortening analysis cycles with Excel workbooks, and delivering faster market research—so I can connect strategy, execution, and measurable outcomes.
