Summary

I have ~9 years of experience in product management, leading advisory, sales, operations, and tech engagements. I started my most recent stint at IIFL Wealth Management Ltd., in the Advisory team where my responsibilities were to prepare portfolio reviews, investment mandates and assist in advisory . Two years into this journey I moved into Altiore, an acquired (early stage) fin-tech analytics platform, to scale the usage of the platform amongst internal and external stakeholders. Altiore is a multi-asset class analytics and performance reporting tool that provides financial insights through dashboard visualizations and numerical metrics. Over the first two years I have oversaw setting up the Business team and scaled the product to assets under tracking at over $8 Billion USD. My responsibilities were to collaborate with various teams such as, operations, technology, compliance, marketing etc. to drive the development of the product aligned with the strategic objectives of the firms. Over the last 3 years I have rolled out various features and products to enhance the digital footprint of the firm. Throughout my career, I have gained extensive product development and management experience in various diverse settings. My years of professional experience at Goldman Sachs and IIFL Wealth Management Ltd., including integrating and scaling products, have created opportunities to deliver and provide results in a collaborative environment. I look forward to discussing how my skills and experience may be of benefit to your firm.
