Experience

  • Building Capsule Works at Capsule.Works
    Feb 2019 - Present · 7 yrs 5 mos

    Founded in 2019. Seven years of learning that the Enterprise Workspace business is 20% real estate, 30% design, and 50% understanding what a company actually needs before they know it themselves. We've built workplaces for companies ranging from 30-person startups to multinational operations. The common thread? Every one of them started the conversation thinking they needed "an office." By the end, they realized they needed a system - one that could flex, scale, and quietly make their people 15% more willing to come in on a Monday. Email: [email protected]

  • Consulting/Advising at Stealth
    Oct 2018 - Feb 2019 · 5 mos

    Spent five months between ventures doing what most founders should do but rarely allow themselves: thinking. Advised early-stage startups on fundraising, evaluated deals across cold chain logistics, sports infrastructure, and edtech for an HNI fund. The real value was pattern recognition - learning to see what makes a business defensible before the market does.

  • Key Account Sales & Business Development Manager (Acquired by OYO) at Innov8 Coworking by OYO
    Jun 2017 - Sep 2018 · 1 yr 4 mos

    Joined Innov8 when coworking in India was still a novelty, not a category. Responsible for revenue generation across Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Delhi-NCR - which is a polite way of saying I spent 16 months convincing sceptical CEOs/CFOs/CXOs that flexible workspace wasn't a fad. Innov8 was acquired by OYO in 2019 for ₹220 Cr. The experience taught me two things: first, that the Indian workspace market was about to explode. Second, that most of the players entering it had no idea what enterprise clients actually needed. That gap became Capsule Works.

  • Co-Founder / COO at Bameslog
    Apr 2014 - Jun 2017 · 3 yrs 3 mos

    Co-founded a content platform company at 19. Built it from a school-era idea into an operating business. It didn't become a unicorn. It did become the education that no MBA could have provided in sales, in managing people, in the hundred small humiliations that teach you what customers actually want versus what they say they want.
