👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 An Indian businessman groomed his second born son to aim for the 🌟 and settle for nothing less. Not even the moon.

Then life happened 😅

Personal

🌎 I'm on a Mission to Enable Everyone to do their Life's Best Work.

🚀 I've built technology startups all my life. Recently exited Maxwell Energy Systems ($40M acq by ETL) and I am currently Co-founder at ION Energy

📍 I live in Dubai. I shuttle back to Mumbai & Bangalore every few months.

😇 I love spending time with early-stage founders to work through strategy, product, and GTM. I started making angel investments in 2021 and completed 6 investments so far. You can apply to raise $ from me or track my investments at SO-BE-IT.

🙏 I'm grateful to have been featured in Forbes 30 under 30 (Asia and India) and Entrepreneur 35 under 35. Now moving towards the Forbes list that really matters ✨

☕️ I love good espressos and mildly milked Iced Lattes. You don't want to get me started on "bad coffee"

😌 I spend more than a decent amount of time learning about the nature of human consciousness and trying to establish my connection with that infinite energy source.

👰🏻 I got married to Malvika in Mar-20 and sadly decided to separate in Feb-23. We were blessed to enjoy an incredibly beautiful and fulfilling time with each other for over a decade.

🐣 Malvika & I became parents to our beautiful baby girl, Abigail on 10th May 2023.

🏋️‍♂️ I train at least 3 times/week. Right now, I can push ~15 reps of Chest press with 100 lbs on the barbell.

🚘 I have this thing of paying for random cars behind me on toll booths, it's my version of "pay it forward"

🥃 I'll occasionally experiment with making artisan cocktails.
