What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth.

I am a dedicated Product Manager with a strong focus on consumer needs and platform growth. My journey began with founding AshaCares, where I launched a WhatsApp MVP aimed at assisting parents with chronic metabolic diseases. Through extensive user interviews and feedback, I successfully guided 2/3 of our early users to achieve their health goals, showcasing my commitment to customer-first problem-solving.

At Navi, I advanced from Associate Product Manager - I to - II, where I spearheaded significant growth initiatives, including achieving a 1.5% market share for Navi UPI, which positioned us as the fourth largest player in India. My efforts in scaling transactions and enhancing user retention through data-driven product initiatives reflect my ability to drive impactful results. I thrive in dynamic environments, managing product roadmaps and cross-functional teams to ensure alignment with organizational goals.

My educational background in Economics and Electronics & Communications from BITS Pilani, coupled with my leadership experience in placement initiatives, has equipped me with a unique blend of analytical and technical skills. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to create innovative solutions that meet user needs and drive business success.
