Currently leading data science at talabat, one of MENA's largest multi-sided marketplace platforms, driving $50M+ in GMV impact across Food and Quick Commerce. Previously Head of Analytics at Pleo, a B2B fintech unicorn in Copenhagen, where I built and led a multi-national and cross competency team across 9 countries, partnering with 500+ stakeholders to embed data at the heart of commercial decision-making. Before that, I pioneered the entire data function at an edutainment startup - taking it from $0 to $3M ARR and EBITDA profitability — and spent years as a data science consultant building ML models and advanced analytics solutions for Expedia, Microsoft, Philips, and eBay. What I bring to mentorship: 13+ years navigating the full data career arc — from analyst to head of function. Experience relocating internationally (Chennai → Copenhagen → Dubai) and breaking into new markets. A track record of hiring, developing, and coaching data practitioners at every level. And honest advice on what actually matters when building a career in this field. Beyond data, I'm deeply passionate about early childhood education — I've led national teams of 300+ volunteers designing math curricula for underserved communities, set up 20+ libraries for children with limited access to books, and completed a professional certification in Early Education Leadership from Harvard Graduate School of Education.
