I’ve always believed that meaningful conversations have the power to change the way we see the world, and each other.
Born in Calcutta, I grew up surrounded by stories and voices that shaped my earliest understanding of connection. Over the years, that curiosity carried me across India and the U.S ; working with global teams, collaborating with institutions like MIT and Virginia Tech, and supporting Fortune 50 clients including UPS, Microsoft, UnitedHealth Group, Albertsons, Morgan Stanley, all while helping build a learning and design startup from the ground up.
Along the way, I wore many hats; sales leader, account manager, project lead, culture carrier, from setting up our U.S. office in Atlanta to bridging clients and cross-border teams. But no matter the role, the mission was always the same: helping people connect better, deeper, and more meaningfully.
That spirit now lives in Between Us, Make Every Conversation Count™, a podcast that brings together voices from across sectors and walks of life to explore what truly matters: mental health, sustainability, entrepreneurship, healthcare, identity, and hope.
As host and producer, I don’t chase headlines, I hold space.
For stories that go deeper. For moments that stay. For people making sense of the world, together.
Because in the end, it’s not about spotlighting loud voices.
It’s about hearing the ones that often go unheard.
If you care about storytelling, community, and change… welcome.
Let’s make every conversation count

Welcome to The Startup Series – a passion project that’s been brewing in my heart and mind for months, and I’m thrilled to finally share it with you.
In this series, we’ll uncover the raw, unfiltered truths of entrepreneurship. From founders to investors, incubators to policymakers, we’ll explore the lessons, strategies, and yes, even the mistakes that shape the entrepreneurial journey.
But before we dive into the world of startups, let’s take a moment to go behind the mic. In this kickoff episode, I’m sharing my personal story — the wins, the struggles, the pivots, and the insights that have shaped my own journey. Because every great adventure begins with a conversation, and today, it’s Between Us.
Join me as we embark on this exciting series together! Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to stay tuned for all the upcoming episodes. Let’s redefine entrepreneurship, one conversation at a time.
Let’s talk. Let’s listen. Let’s act.

The idea of ‘Between Us’ stems from the fact that every conversation matters, especially the one that we have with ourselves. So using podcast as a medium, I am fortunate to bring folks who have made an impact in everyday lives, from diverse backgrounds, to engage in a meaningful conversation.The topics are as diverse and deeply interconnected - from climate justice to big tech to healthcare as a constitutional right to millennial expectations to gender equality and inclusiveness.
I warmly welcome you to join me in this journey. Let’s make every conversation count..!!
