What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a full-time role at a growth-stage company where entrepreneurial thinking, client ownership, and performance-driven execution are valued—helping clients deliver measurable growth with strong operational discipline.

I’m a growth marketing and business operations professional with 5+ years of experience scaling SMEs across hospitality, SaaS, education, and retail. I found and run two active ventures while delivering measurable growth for clients through client ownership and execution.

My work blends performance marketing with operational clarity: driving restaurant customer acquisition from zero to full capacity (100% footfall increase), improving college enrollment enquiries and campus engagement by 45%, and increasing resort occupancy by 35% using localized PPC and seasonal planning. I’ve managed Google Ads and Meta Ads with CPCs as low as Rs. 0.50 while maintaining lead quality across varied budgets.

I lead cross-functional teams of 20+ and deliver end-to-end initiatives—from requirement gathering and workflow automation builds to client handoff—coordinating developers, designers, and marketers across concurrent projects. I’m now seeking a full-time role at a growth-stage company where entrepreneurial thinking, client ownership, and performance-driven execution are valued.
