Mumbai has always been home, and it’s here where my early interest in business was sparked. While still in college, I decided to put that interest to the test by co-founding an education startup—a whirlwind experience that taught me invaluable lessons about both resilience and adaptability. I graduated with a B.Sc. in Finance from NMIMS University, and then launched my career at Barclays on the prime brokerage team, quickly realizing that my calling lay elsewhere.

A shift to private equity brought me to Morgan Stanley, where I supported growth and buyout investments across the consumer, healthcare, and financial services sectors. This experience deepened my understanding of businesses at various stages and further fuelled my interest in helping innovative brands grow. In 2024, I joined Verlinvest to focus on consumer and healthcare investments in India—a role that allows me to blend my passion for entrepreneurship with a commitment to fostering growth for impactful companies.

Beyond the office, I pursue my passions for trekking, padel, and writing— finding purpose and perspective in these pursuits.
