Overview

Based in Coimbatore. I lead onboarding and activation at Airtel. Launched the growth product in 7 markets. Took growth activation from 31% to 38% in three quarters. Before that: Microsoft and JPMorgan Chase. Most at home with user research and growth. I host a monthly meetup on onboarding and activation.
