Founder, GrowthX® | Growth Leader at CRED, Dunzo | Building growth leaders for India

I grew up in a remote town in Maharashtra, went to a Tier 2 college & took a lot of unconventional routes to land up a one-way flight to Bangalore— all of it for the right opportunity.

Opportunity to build something that I truly find joy in & want to spend a considerable portion of my life. Sure - like most of my inner circle of friends, I was ambitious, but none of it would have happened if Bengaluru had not given me the “Opportunity”.

I’m grateful to be able to live my dream, build products that impact so many lives over the last couple of years & be part of the India story. 

Currently, I am building GrowthX, a community that helps you be around people who are smarter than you, learn key skills & crack your next breakout role. Over 5,000 vetted professionals from companies like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Apple, Jio, HUL, ITC, Coca-Cola, and more trust GrowthX to grow their careers.

The product is simple — you spend face-time with vetted people online & through IRL events, learn key skills through weekly live learning expert-led sessions, & you get everything you need to crack your next job role.

If you read until this point, do check out www.growthx.club & tell me if we are/ aren’t doing a good job at communicating what we do :)
