About

Product Consultant with overall 16+ years’ experience in agile/startup environments across various B2C business models and B2B ecommerce with organizations like industrybuying.com, Times Internet, ibibo.com among others

Domain Experience: Social Networking/Media, Brand Product Management, SaaS/Mobile Browser App, News Media/Auto Portal, Ecommerce, Telecom/VAS

I transitioned to product management from being a UI developer with expertise in developing front-end frameworks for web sites, intranets and web based application user interfaces. Utilise W3C coding standards and Accessibility standards to deliver high quality valid XHTML, DHTML, CSS2 and JavaScript. Usabilty and Information architecture are the areas that excites me.

I worked as one of the core member in startup with ibibo building range of internet products with the focus on user experience, community building and branding. I also managed and strategised the localization of Tencent’s ( China’s largest and most used internet portal) QQ mobile Browser for ibibo in India. Further I headed P&L of mobile and apps for Times Internet Limited’s Auto business vertical – ZigWheels.com.

Personally I am a person who lives in the moment & looks forward to making each moment a celebration. I am passionate about 3 T’s in my life – Tea, Travelling and Taking Actions. I am not a planner & very action oriented. I balances this out with my family who grounds me most of the time.

Reading is another hobby! Another domain that stirs some interest in me is Numerology & Graphology.  Creativity comes to me in spurts and I may paint/ Write / Read books /stitch / cook for a day & then there are day’s that goes without any creative outburst.
