About me

Not long ago, I was a grad student trying to figure out how to break into product management with an engineering background and no clear roadmap. IIT Bombay, then Northwestern — good foundation, but the PM job search is its own game, and almost nobody teaches you how it actually works. I figured it out. Now I help others do the same, faster. Today, I'm a Staff PM at Tesla, leading digital products across AI, energy, and enterprise systems. Before that, product roles at The Walt Disney Company and Star Sports, and three startups co-founded along the way. But the thing I want to tell you about is Spectate Esports. Outside of Tesla, I built a live pro Dota 2 platform from scratch — spectateesports.live — because I'm genuinely obsessed with the game and frustrated that no good tool existed. No team. No budget. Just me, a product idea I cared about, and AI coding tools to build it. It hit 500 users in three weeks with zero marketing. I'm still shipping features every week. I tell you this because it's the most honest thing on this profile. I'm not just a PM who talks about AI or advises on building — I'm actively doing it, on something I love, right now. That's the lens I bring to every session. What I help grad students with: breaking into PM, positioning your background for PM roles, preparing for PM interviews, and figuring out your path when it doesn't look obvious. What I help builders with: using AI tools to actually ship something, thinking about AI features as a PM, going from idea to working product. Sessions are direct, specific, and built around your situation. Bring your real question — resume, interview prep, AI project idea, or "I don't know where to start" — and we'll make real progress.
