I started by building things end-to-end — from writing backend systems to designing user experiences. Over time, that evolved into thinking beyond code: understanding user behavior, shaping flows, and shipping products that actually solve real problems.

Working across multiple technologies taught me how to move fast from idea → prototype → usable product → scale.

I've founded and built multiple ventures — Greetify, CodeCollab, SwiftGifts, and HomeBites — including launching one of the first hyperlocal gift delivery experiences in Ahmedabad.

Being a founder forced me to learn product the hard way: prioritizing what to build, talking to users, iterating quickly, and balancing tech, business, and go-to-market decisions under constraints.

That experience shaped how I approach products today — with ownership, speed, and a bias for execution.

Through my podcast and speaking engagements, I stay close to what builders, users, and operators are actually thinking. I've delivered 10+ talks across startups, Web3, and mental health — but more importantly, I've had hundreds of conversations that continuously sharpen how I understand problems and people.

I've also had the opportunity to represent India at the NGWA Challenge at a young age — an experience that pushed me further into building and thinking globally.
