About
Bio
Background:
I've spent two decades in consulting, business development, strategic partnerships and go-to-market strategy, and driven over $200 million in direct revenue growth along the way. I hold an MBA in Marketing and IT from ICFAI University and a B.Tech from IET Bareilly, with later certifications from Yale, Northwestern and Columbia.
Career:
At Altimetrik I lead Business Development and Engagement Strategies, working with clients across Gen AI, digital product engineering, cloud, big data and mobility. Most of that work comes down to the same three things: taking cost out, automating what shouldn't need a person, and simplifying operations that have grown complicated by accident.
Objective:
I work with small and mid-size business owners who want growth they can sustain, not a transformation programme they can't staff. That means being specific about where AI and automation earn their keep, and equally specific about where they don't.
Passions:
Away from work I play chess and cook, which are closer to each other than they sound. Both reward patience and punish shortcuts.
Speaking:
I speak on AI adoption, revenue growth and the personal side of building a business. I try to leave an audience with something they can act on the following week, rather than a framework they'll admire and forget.
