Driving Scalable Impact Across Fortune 500 Brands | IIM KozhikodeI help Fortune 500 brands turn digital commerce into measurable growth. With an MBA from IIM Kozhikode and 10 years across PepsiCo, Fractal, Ugam, and Meredith, I operate where product management, marketing strategy, analytics, and sales operations come together to deliver impact at scale. Currently @ Bayer as Senior Product Specialist.

My edgeI don’t just design strategies — I operationalize them at scale.
