Strategic Leadership,
Empirical Rigor.

With over 12 years in data science—most recently as a Director/Senior Director—I’ve spent my career at the high-stakes intersection of human behavior and predictive modeling.

I founded my independent practice to help companies bridge the gap between their strategic ambitions and their technical reality. I don't just deliver reports; I build the systems that drive measurable growth.

Based in Bengaluru after nearly a decade in the US, I bring a global perspective to international clients seeking senior-tier marketing analytics expertise and AI strategy.
