I take on the hardest problems in the room.
Learn fast. Own the outcome end to end. Six years across BD, brand building, and ops. Now building with AI.
Where I've been and what I did.

Six years across BD, brand building, and ops. Now building with AI.
I started in fashion merchandising at Levi's and Uniqlo, learning supply chains, vendor negotiations, and what happens when operations break.
Then I co-founded Brun, a D2C apparel brand under Royal Classic Mills, owning everything from e-commerce infrastructure to P&L. In parallel I built a design vertical at RCM from scratch with zero design background.
Three months ago I joined CLO Virtual Fashion as BD Manager for India and South Asia. Since then I've built AI-powered research workflows, automated reporting systems, and closed my first enterprise deal while most people were still onboarding.
I'm looking for a Founders Office, Chief of Staff, or AI Generalist role where speed of learning matters more than a linear pedigree.
