I’ve walked the path from top finance firms—Goldman Sachs (London) and Rothschild (Paris)—to founding and scaling deep tech B2B startups across 20+ global markets. Along the way, I’ve helped build VC-backed ventures from the ground up, leading both 0→1 launches and 1→10 growth across Europe, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East.


I studied at St. Xavier’s College (Mumbai), the London School of Economics (LSE), and a French Grande École, and began my career in investment research and hedge funds before transitioning into entrepreneurship and startup leadership. I’ve led growth, and commercial strategy in fast-growing companies at the intersection of data & deeptech.


I’ve lived and worked professionally in London, Paris, Hong Kong, Singapore, Mumbai, and Bangalore, and bring a global lens to everything I do.


If you’re a university student, young professional, or aspiring founder, I can help you:


  • Break into investment banking or equity research roles (GS, Rothschild, etc.)
  • Craft a CV and personal narrative that gets you into top schools (LSE, Top European Management Schools etc)
  • Transition from finance to startups
  • Understand how to build and scale B2B or deep tech companies from an operator’s perspective


Whether you’re just getting started or at a key pivot point, I’m happy to share real-world, actionable guidance to help you navigate your path with more clarity and confidence.
