About Me

Steady | Clear | Decisive

Where every story begins with a climb and the breath that carries you through it

Every real story begins before the first step — in the silence that asks whether you’ll take it at all. I’ve loved mountains for as long as I can remember, not for the summit, but for the private negotiation that happens on the way up, when turning back would be easier. My career was never a ladder. It was always a mountain.
I learned to write under deadline in a newsroom at CNN-News18, where there was no time to make something sound good — only time to find what was true and say it fast enough to matter. That instinct followed me into healthcare communications, where a wrong word doesn’t just fail, it can mislead someone about their own care. Then I built brand for an entire institution at Pearl Academy, accountable for how a whole organization was understood by the people who mattered to it — not writing about brand from the outside, but owning it.
Now I work at enterprise scale at Genpact, inside deals where a buying committee has to be convinced by language that survives being repeated, imperfectly, by someone who wasn’t in the room where it was built. I’m currently sharpening the other half of this work through an Executive MBA at ISB, learning to build the case for brand in the language a business already trusts.
Yoga has been part of my life since childhood, long before it had anything to do with a career — it was the same discipline the mountains taught me, just practiced quietly, on a mat instead of a slope. The boardroom and the mat ask the same question, just in different postures: can you stay steady when there’s no applause, no one to blame, and the path narrows. Yoga taught me to sit with that question. Brand work taught me to answer it out loud, for other people.
Four industries, one throughline – Finding what’s true enough to hold up under pressure. If you’re looking for someone who can lead brand where it sits closest to revenue, and stay clear-headed doing it, that’s the work I’m here to do.
