## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm looking to lead cross-functional programs, product initiatives, and operational automation where I can turn strategy into measurable launches, stronger customer experiences, and scalable systems.
```

## About

```text
I've led new initiatives at Dr.Paws and Kapiva, taking services, clinic operations, and customer programs from concept through launch. At Dr.Paws, I launched the Jayanagar clinic end to end and piloted scalable service offerings across grooming, subscriptions, nutrition, and physiotherapy.

At Kapiva, I managed 60 new product developments, reducing time to market by 30%. I automated NPD and artwork systems in ClickUp, introduced dashboards and AI-enabled reporting, and improved customer issue recognition by 25% through standardized issue tagging and operational reviews.

My work spans program management, strategy, product operations, and data-driven execution. I've also supported CEO-level initiatives at Bolt.Earth and Anzy Careers, led regulatory work at Sanofi US, and managed experimental research at the Wyss Institute.
