The Life and Times of...

Currently, I'm an Entrepreneur in Residence, building startups in polling and AdTech for email. Connect with me on LinkedIn.

I've spent two decades across media and technology — Times of India, India Today, Indiamart, Samsung — and a stint running operations and technology for the Indian National Congress. I've marketed everything from newspapers to B2B software, and I believe in living on the bleeding edge. First website in 1996, first blog in 2000.

As a NakliTechie, AKA vibe coder, I have quite the portfolio. I wrote about why in the NakliTechie manifesto.

I love to cook. I dabble in amateur electronics. My passion is motorcycling. I'm a specialist in obscure details.
