I build strategic creator partnerships and ecosystem growth programs for YouTube’s India content verticals.

At YouTube Content Partnerships India, I project-manage strategic workstreams across Podcast and Kids, building programs that grow creator ecosystems, product adoption, and partner value.

I built a source-of-truth repository of 1,000+ Indian podcast creators to inform 2024–2026 OKRs, partnered on acquiring chart-topping creators, and helped launch the Podcast Home page in India. I also ran creator workshops that reached 1,200+ creators and exceeded annual event OKRs by over 300% by Q3.

I secured 90+ zero-cost Connected TV placements with Jio TV, Xiaomi TV, and Google TV, creating a playbook recognized at the APAC Winning Strategy Forum. For YouTube Kids, I supported tentpole programming that exceeded video-submission OKRs by 1,100%.

Before YouTube, I worked across sales, business development, talent, and vendor partnerships at AIESEC, FlytBase, and Zinnov. I bring experience in deal execution, stakeholder management, creator strategy, data-informed planning, and cross-functional delivery.
