Overview

I've spent 11 years on community - first at Airtel, now at Cobalt Finance. Built a community of 55 thousand members from zero. Rebuilt the community reporting so every rupee and dollar of spend is traceable. Before that: JPMorgan Chase and Adobe. Former debater; now I argue with spreadsheets.
