I have the good fortune of working with really talented folks who have taken very diverse paths to get to where they are at. I work with a wide network of ex-consultants, founders, VCs, strategists and others who have helped me understand how to navigate inflection points in a career, when to take risks and how to reinvent oneself. I am also grateful for the experiences I've had across a wide variety of functions, geographies (US, Europe & South Asia) and different stages (large clients through consulting, early stage startups through angel investing and growth-stage through my tech jobs).
