The Profile

I'm the person who can explain a microservices architecture to a VP — and build it by Friday.

After 2.75 years at Infosys engineering fintech systems that process millions of bank transactions daily, I chose to deepen the business side at SPJIMR Mumbai — graduating on the Dean's Honour List (Top 5%) — before joining EBS Universität in Germany's Rheingau for an MSc in Business Analytics.

My edge: I don't translate between tech and business. I speak both fluently.

German B2. Four languages total. Based in Eltville am Rhein — 30 min from Frankfurt.
