Summary
Update Dec 21: After 8yrs of getting my hands dirty as an
entrepreneur, alongside 3 jobs, I've finally decided to jump back as
an FTE in a high-growth startup.
TL;DR my top 3 experiences highlighted below:
[1] As a BITS Pilani + YIF alum, entrepreneurship has always been
in my DNA:
- Founded Hunger Cycle Foods & bootstrapped to a profitable
$200k ARR (now on 100% auto-pilot)
- Founded & failed at 2 startups: (a) Dino - AirBnB for home
experiences (b) Revidya - Byjus for soft skills
[2] As head of stealth food brands at Swiggy:
- Grew 5 brands from 0 to $1m ARR across 50+ locations in 4
months
- Took 3 brands worth $20m ARR from -20% EBITDA to +7%
profitability in 3 months
[3] As chief of staff to the Cipla's global COO:
Reduced pending orders to <1% & saved $100m inventory from an
overall $650m business
️ Handpicked by Samina Vaziralli (EV Chairman) to kickstart India's
PMO office
