About

I have 8 years of experience in helping early-stage startups in growth & Marketing. In my last role, I was the Head of Growth at a Singapore-based AI startup. Before this, I was heading Growth at a FinTech startup in India. In the past, I have worked with some exceptional early-stage tech companies - I headed Marketing at Waydev (Analytics Platform, YC backed) and Fortanix (cybersecurity, Intel capital-backed). I take full ownership of projects, drawing from my entrepreneurial background where I founded Outr GmbH and Niro. I've mentored startups globally, including those in accelerators like OnDeck and Pioneer. Excited to collaborate for impact.
