My Story 

I come from a quaint serene coastal village in Karnataka where we sleep, wake up and live to the sound of crashing waves. Grew up watching my Mother’s kindness, resourcefulness and resilience. 

How I got into investment banking? 

I want to be an enabler that makes significant things happen and this was one way to go about it.

What keeps me up at night?

If I will get to contribute to and be alive to see a world run on the principles of Doughnut Economics – an ideal world.

My inspirations 

Kate Raworth – How to simplify and visualize a new school of thought, Charles Eisenstein – How to remain hopeful and dream of an ideal world, Elon Musk – Ruthlessly execute. 

My focus/interest 

Tech startups solving real world problems and building systemic resilience. 

What excites me?

Disruption – Reinventing the wheel when necessary in a way nobody ever dreamt of.

Best piece of advice given to me 

Take risks now. Do something bold. You won’t regret it.

My advice to entrepreneurs 

Dream big. Take risks. Ride the wave. Be open to change and feedback. Don’t lose focus on the fundamentals – Product, People, Planet, Growth and Profits.

What IndigoEdge is to me?

Joining Indigo Edge was probably one of my canon events . The (wolf)pack mentality and the entire vibe of the place is to bring the best out of the pack and the startups we work with.  

Cooling off 

Building tiny forest ecosystems (proud owner of a 5 feet long shovel and digging rod), yoga, sci-fi novels, learning to play new sports (currently getting my ass kicked at every football game ), traveling and adventure sports.
