About

As a business strategist with 8 years of experience across FMCG and consumer companies within management consulting, I find keen interest where data, execution and customer insights come together. I’ve led end-to-end growth programs—from on-ground retail distribution expansion at Emami to high-impact strategy projects at Deloitte for leading brands in spices, luggage, jewellery, apparel, nutrition, and travel retail. My expertise lies in designing scalable go-to-market strategies, optimizing route-to-market models, building loyalty and incentive programs, and delivering EBITDA-positive business plans. I’ve partnered directly with CXOs to execute digital transformation initiatives, unlock revenue from underpenetrated channels, and identify ₹100 Cr+ white space opportunities through detailed market assessments. Today, I’m passionate about helping consumer brands scale—whether through omnichannel expansion, category innovation, or smarter tech-led operations. Let’s connect if you’re building something exciting in this space!
