Tell us about yourself and your career.

I have always followed my passion in my life. My passion about working in a chocolate factory made my pick up engineering as a graduation course and watching advertisements made me become an MBA with majors in advertising.

Advertising drove my interest in media and my first product manager gig was as to launch a news product for a leading media company. This was in fact their first stint as well in launching a mobile app for their flagship brand. We had some hiccups with low app ratings but eventually prevailed on them with extension in 10+ more brands and 22 mn app downloads.

This experience helped me get into product management for streaming services brand with ownership of subscription, ad integration and recommendations engine for a major streaming servives brand. This also required to own the upgradation of the content pipeline.

There are other smaller apps and brands that I owned in the interim e.g.  app for engaging customers in an entertainment park, a SVOD app for legacy content to name a few.
