About Me

I am a Product Manager with a strong engineering foundation and business acumen from IIM Calcutta. My journey has taken me from building scalable financial systems at Barclays to driving enterprise search innovation at Microsoft, and now revolutionizing EdTech at Allen.

I specialize in bridging the gap between cutting-edge AI technologies and user needs. Whether it's deploying Edge Inferencing models to 250M users or building 0-to-1 multimodal learning platforms, I focus on delivering measurable impact.
