My Career
Creating Products that Push the Human Race Forward
Feb'22 - Present
Pice
Founding Product Manager
Chose fintech as the next frontier for a couple of reasons: To become a strong product builder; Have a deep understanding of Finance & Tech. Why are these important? I know for sure that whatever I decide to build in life going forward finance and tech would play a crucial role. So why not get into the trenches and learn all there is to it.
At Pice we are building a Unified Business Payment Interface - aka dramatically improving how businesses pay & get access to credit for growth.
Spent the first 5 years of my adult life passionately trying to
accelerate the adoption of clean mobility solutions in India

Micelio Motors
Business Strategist
Internally promoted to do the kind of work I had been preparing for my whole life. Building the strategy to scale a young Electric Vehicle OEM. My work includes deciding everything from the kind of markets & consumers we serve to the products we will build to what and how the brand of the company will be. It's everything one could ask for and I'm trying to culminate all the past learnings and bring it into practice to make this a great company.

Micelio Mobility
Business Analyst
Shifted the focus from having the badge of an entrepreneur to putting my self in the best position to contribute the most and have the biggest impact in the sustainable mobility space. Joined the only place I knew that has the willingness and resources to make a real long lasting impact in the lives of people through clean technology. Worked with the COO on various exploratory and strategic projects concerning all the 4 entities under Micelio.

Ohm Mobility
Founding Member
A chance encounter on LinkedIn and a common alumni connection gave way to me being a founding member of a EV company along with 3 other people at least 10 years older to me. As the world went under we built a system for easy and digital repayments of commercial vehicle loans. A stepping stone towards enabling access to clean fuel vehicles. The experience was unlike anything but the heart wanted more, so I stepped away. The company remains on the course we set it on.

Haabitat
Solopreneur
Turned down the offer to work full time at Micelio as I had to make full use of the one year I had. Worked for 6 months learning about the retail & distribution model of automotives. Convinced the traditional model would not work in the new world of EVs, ended up building an e-commerce website for E 2Ws. Sadly the project never saw the day of light, but it gave way to something even special.

Micelio Mobility
Marketing Intern
As I graduated I asked my parents for a year to start something in this space. They obliged. As a last moment desperate attempt to get away from a shady hiring, I applied to the newly launched Micelio Fund. Got rejected but landed an internship to help build some early marketing processes with the COO.
Nov-2017 to present
Content & Networking
Social Media Guy
Convinced of the huge potential in EVs and the early exposure to some great behind the scenes working drove me to launch one of the first EV focused social media platforms. This allowed me to tell people about all the amazing things going on in this part of the world. It also allowed me to meet 100s of individuals from the industry across all levels. The impact of this hyper-exposure? Accelerated learning of the industry, business and entrepreneurship in a high tech space.

Experiment - 1
18 y/o Dreamy eyed & Driven boy
It all started in the first semester break at college when I went around surveying newly launched delivery companies and delivery boys. With the data collected, I came to the conclusion that renting out electric 2W would work. Bought what was the only Li-ion electric 2W of the time and did a pilot run with Box 8 & Bike Ninja. Ran into some obvious operational challenges that young me could not solve. However this whole experience gave me a sneak into the future and I wanted a piece of it.
