Trained to design.
Built to make numbers move.

Twelve years turning digital potential into revenue — scaling D2C brands, launching marketplace and quick-commerce channels across the GCC and India, and running P&L for a category leader. Before the spreadsheets there was a sketchbook: fashion design at IED and SNDT, and backstage at Lakmé Fashion Week. The eye stayed. The rigour came later.
