From excelling at GATE to five years in oil & gas PSU, from reinventing myself at ISB to shaping investments and strategy in real estate — I’ve worn the helmet, the suit, and now the strategist’s hat. Having lived through the career pivots people often dream (or fear) of, along the way, I’ve learnt how to navigate tough choices, crack competitive exams, switch industries, and land in high-stakes strategy/investment roles. My goal here is to share what worked (and what didn’t), and sincerely help you find your own clarity, confidence, and smarter way forward.
