About

I’m a media professional and startup enthusiast, constantly improving myself by connecting with talented people, reading books by leaders and experts, and watching and listening to documentaries/podcasts on the economy, business, marketing, philosophy and self development.

I have a unique perspective in marketing, as I view it holistically by going in-depth into the user experience and features of products, while having a keen grasp on the larger business objectives, given my background in developing apps and building a startup

I’m all about connecting with people, exchanging and debating ideas, and having fun and thought provoking conversations!
