About

I started my journey building strong foundations in service operations and coordination, where I learned how structured execution, process efficiency, and customer-centricity directly impact business performance. Managing nationwide service workflows, billing cycles, and inventory systems gave me deep exposure to how large-scale operations function on the ground. As I progressed, I moved into cross-functional leadership roles across pharma, OEM, and wellness sectors, taking ownership of sales, operations, compliance, and manufacturing. Here, I expanded my scope from execution to strategy — leading B2B, B2C, and export sales, driving double-digit growth, and scaling customer acquisition across India. I also worked closely on regulatory frameworks including ISO 13485, CE, US FDA, and GMP, while optimizing manufacturing efficiency and reducing operational costs. Over time, I transitioned into a full-scale business leadership role, managing large teams, launching new product categories, and building structured sales systems. From onboarding distributors to designing incentive programs and authoring sales playbooks, I focused on creating repeatable and scalable growth engines. Currently, as Sales Head at EriCare, I lead national sales, distribution, and performance marketing for a fast-growing beauty & wellness brand. I own the complete commercial strategy — from GTM planning and channel expansion to P&L management and digital growth. I operate at the intersection of Sales, Marketing, and Operations, ensuring that every initiative directly contributes to measurable revenue outcomes. My focus is on building brands not just in theory, but in the market — through strong distribution, sharp execution, and data-driven decision-making. Across my journey, one principle has remained constant: Growth comes from aligning strategy with execution at every level. If you are building a brand, scaling distribution, or looking to drive revenue growth — let’s connect.
