The best part of my job is

The most rewarding aspect of my job is connecting with new individuals, and fostering continuous learning and growth. Every day brings fresh opportunities for interaction and learning.

My leadership mantra

Embracing the current, I believe in enjoying the journey and taking charge of the challenges that come my way.

My career-defining moment

A pivotal career moment was leaving a stable job to co-found TheSmallBigIdea with my partner, Harikrishnan Pillai. Taking that leap of faith has been a defining and successful move.

My advice to young professionals

Prioritise continuous learning. In the age of AI where everything is being automated, maintaining a curious mindset is crucial. Learn consistently – it's the key to earning.

How I recharge on the weekends

Weekends are my time to recharge by reconnecting with old friends, indulging in binge-watching, spending quality moments with family, and ensuring a good night's sleep.

A recent ad campaign I liked

A recent ad campaign that caught my attention is Colgate's Toothless Granny – a creatively impactful and memorable initiative.
