Who I Am

Building at the Intersection
of Business & Technology

ProfessionalCasual

I'm an entrepreneur and strategist who believes in building things that matter. Originally from Balasore, Odisha, I now split my time between Chicago and India — running a growing transportation company remotely while driving partnerships and growth strategy in the U.S.

My journey started with AIESEC, where I led 200+ people across global operations. Since then, I've built and scaled ventures, closed enterprise deals with Fortune 500 companies, and launched a fleet of buses under the Nandighosh brand — named after Lord Jagannath's chariot — blending cultural heritage with modern business.

I hold an MS in Technological Entrepreneurship from Illinois Institute of Technology and have been recognized as a Beta Gamma Sigma honoree (top 1% of business graduates). Whether it's SaaS, transportation, or real estate — I build systems that scale.
