About Me

Turning ambition into enrollment, one student at a time.

Over twelve years in India's EdTech landscape have taught me that education is far more than a transaction — it's a transformation. I've built my career at the intersection of academic counseling, strategic sales, and business growth, helping thousands of students find the right programs to advance their careers.

From Pearson to Jaro Education to leading growth at the executive level today, my journey has been defined by a single focus: connecting the right student with the right opportunity, while building the revenue engines and the teams that make it all scale.
