I am a hands-on operator-turned-VC and not a spray-and-pray Venture Capitalist. That means I enjoy working with a select bunch of startup founders, helping them build their ventures like a passionate co-founder.

While at prior firm, I have led investments in Batterysmart, Beato, Kenko, Karboncards, Elda Health, Gullynetwork, ShopG, Werize, Ixigo, Nxtwave, Vedantu, Mobikwik, CarDekho, Varaha and Hypd.

I know firsthand the challenges that come with scaling a business, including:

• Building top of mind awareness with investors and customers
• Managing a P&L
• Navigating complex regulatory environments
• Being perceived as an employer of choice
• Reinventing brands from scratch
• How to influence image with investors in different ways to fundraise effectively

That's why I take great pride in mentoring founders who face similar challenges, offering guidance and support every step of the way.

I'm passionate about two additional aspects of startup success: marketing, and building an incredible work culture. I have extensive experience in both of these areas, and I'm committed to extending my expertise to startups looking to scale. I'm also dedicated to education and student entrepreneurship.
