About Me

Having grown up in one of the most eccentric cities in the world, I have always been curious about 'all things cities'. Most of my childhood was spent in the bustling alleys and on the sprawling highways of Mumbai. 

My city's unparalleled urban growth, and its issues, led me to pursue an academic career specialized in dealing with urban development in the global south. This journey has taken me from a bachelor's in Economics and International Relations to a masters in Urban governance. 

Along the way, I’ve had the opportunity to work with firms across the energy, transport, and urban development sectors. These experiences have strengthened my commitment to building cities that are both sustainable and inclusive, striving for a future that benefits everyone.
