Originally from Bombay, I've lived & worked across London, Bombay, Bangalore, Stockholm & Goa most recently. I'm currently building an OS for Short Term Rentals starting with Goa, India and the UK.

My Professional Experience from 2008 to 2017 spans two distinct phases of FINance + TECHnology:

I. 2008-13 - FIN: Investment banking, hedge fund investing, fundraising & global strategy/M&A roles across Bombay & London.

II. 2014-17 - TECH: Co-Founder leading Product at 3 early-stage, VC-backed B2C startups in Bangalore (India's Silicon Valley); including 1 exit & backing by Accel.

Fortunately, in December 2017, I survived a near-fatal car crash and am now living my second life with a 3D printed titanium plate in my skull. While recovering gradually (2018-21), I undertook multiple Venture Consulting projects, Qualifications & Startup Experiments.

Upon making a full recovery & post COVID lockdowns, I moved to Stockholm to revamp Truecaller's iOS app in early 2022. Over an intense 7-month marathon, we rolled out of a brand new iOS app, written from the ground up; that helped us double our global iOS users within 4 weeks!

I then leveraged my background in FINance + TECHnology to team up with an old college friend (& ex-colleague) and we built multiple fintech startups together raising a seed round from Tim Draper to reward purchases (across 120+ UK brands) with sats (Bitcoin) as cash back called YouEarnBTC.
