Talk To Me About

As a former Solutions Architect at AWS and a Product Manager focused on data infrastructure, I’m fascinated by what needs to evolve at the infrastructure layer to power the next generation of applications. With AI and Agents redefining what an application even is, there are countless open questions about how the infra stack will inevitably shift—and I love digging into those.

I get energized by meeting the technologists behind emerging (and often wonky!) projects, especially when they’re solving deep infrastructural challenges. The most rewarding part of this job is partnering with people and founders who think in decades, working with them from the earliest stages to navigate company building—whether it’s refining product strategy, sharpening messaging, or figuring out the right GTM approach.

Backstory

“Where are you from?” is one of the hardest questions for me to answer. I was born in Chennai, grew up in New Zealand and Saudi Arabia, and eventually made my way to the U.S. for college. I liked science, so I studied Chemical Engineering at UCLA—where graduation also marked the end of my Chemical Engineering career.

From there, I moved across industries and roles that, in hindsight, seem intentional (but weren’t at the time). I picked up data infrastructure as a Product Manager in Pharma, got deep into cloud infrastructure while supporting startup customers at AWS, and learned how tricky messaging can be as a Product Marketing Manager at a seed-stage startup in Australia.

These experiences led me to explore venture and entrepreneurship during grad school at MIT—and ultimately shaped how I think about investing in, and supporting, founders today.
