A simple love for learning.
What started as a love for learning has grown into a career spanning classrooms, boardrooms and conference stages.
With over fifteen years in the education sector, I have had the privilege of working at the intersection of curriculum, strategy, teacher development and institutional relations. I hold a Doctorate in Education from the European International University, Paris, a post-graduate diploma in Business Administration from the Welingkar Institute, Mumbai, and a Bachelor's degree in Management Studies from the University of Mumbai.
My career began at the SP Jain School of Global Management, where I planned academic programmes across Dubai, Singapore and Sydney. Leadership roles followed at Toppr, LIDO, BeyondSkool and the LEAD Group, each broadening my view of how education systems operate at scale. My most recent corporate appointment was Chief Learning Officer and Head of Strategy at HubbleHox (Ampersand Group & VIBGYOR Schools), where I was responsible for learning experience design, product strategy and business development.
At present I am building Hyriki, a capability-based educator assessment and hiring platform for schools. I continue to teach every week as a Visiting Professor at IISM under the University of Mumbai; the classroom keeps my practice grounded.
I have had the privilege of speaking at forums such as the CII National School Education Summit 2024 and Bharat Shiksha Expo 2025, and my work in education and nation-building has been covered by Business World, Business Standard and ANI News.
