As an engineering leader with a decade of experience in Engineering, Product, Design, & Team Management I have successfully navigated the complexities of delivering award-winning products and leading cross-functional teams. My journey includes building JumpingMinds' tech ground up, a team of 30+, and a product achieving 1.1 Mn+ users globally with best-in-class metrics and over 12+ national awards.
Having started coding at the age of 7, across the last decade I have been building products ground up and scaling them to millions of users with organizations like Disney, Qualcomm, and now jumpingMinds.ai.
jumpingMinds is a comprehensive Mental HealthTech solution, offering end-to-end services to individuals, healthcare providers, and corporates, making mental well-being accessible & impactful to all. Before jumpingMinds, I led the Social, Gaming & Sports functions at Disney+Hotstar, building a socially engaging feed that doubles the user engagement for 500M+ users annually during Indian Premier League streaming.
My approach focuses on combining innovation with practical execution, ensuring robust systems that drive user satisfaction and revenue at scale. Having led teams, delivering complex projects, several programming languages experience, and more, I bring versatile skill sets to the table. My commitment is reflected in accolades such as "Mental Health App of the Year 2023" by the Economic Times and "Technology Leader in 40 Under 40" by Business World.
