These days, I’m building CNCT Media
A design and marketing agency I co-founded. We help bold, forward-thinking brands craft impactful campaigns and digital experiences that actually move the needle. In just over a year, we’ve grown nearly 8x by focusing on storytelling, design, and strategy that cuts through the noise.
Before starting CNCT, I spent years shaping some of India’s most influential digital platforms.
Corporate Career Highlights
Hotstar
I was a founding designer at Hotstar, where I led the product experience across mobile, web, and TV. As the platform scaled to become the first Indian app to cross 100 M downloads, I took on leadership of the Product and Graphic Design teams and played a key role in many of its major feature launches.
MX Player
I then joined MX Player, overseeing a talented 50-member team commanding Product, Graphic and Gaming spread across India and China. One of my proudest moments was helping steer the product’s evolution from a simple video player to a full-scale entertainment platform.
Yahoo!, Sony and Vodafone
Early in my career, I’ve also had the chance to work with brands like Yahoo!, Sony and Vodafone.
