About
I've spent two decades building products that help people navigate the world—literally and figuratively. At Google, I helped create Maps that guide billions of people daily. At Uber, I led the product team that transformed how the world moves. Now at Microsoft, I'm focused on how people connect and communicate.
I grew up in India, built my first startup in Singapore right out of college, and have called the San Francisco Bay Area home for over a decade. I'm passionate about building products at scale, mentoring the next generation of product leaders, and investing in ambitious founders.
