About

I've always been drawn to the same question in different rooms: why does this work, and why does it matter. An MBA from IIM Calcutta gave that question a proper vocabulary, strategy, growth, digitalization, the mechanics behind why some brands scale and others quietly fade. I'm building a career in product, and somewhere further down the road, hoping to build something of my own too, perhaps a business, perhaps a cafe with good coffee and better taste.

But the same curiosity that pulls me toward a case study pulls me just as easily toward a painting, an old textile, or the history behind a tradition still being practiced today. I draw and paint when I can, I notice clothes the way other people notice weather, and I think culture and tradition deserve the same close attention we usually reserve for a market or a brand.

This is where both sides get to think out loud. I don't claim to have it all figured out, if anything, an MBA mostly taught me how much I still don't know, but I write here anyway, with more curiosity than credentials, because the thinking needed somewhere to live.
