Co-Founder & GP at Inuka Capital, a pre-seed and seed focused firm partnering with founders in India. I co-founded Inuka with Raj Sheth in 2022.
Before Inuka: led APAC investing at On Deck, was the first international PM at Skillshare, and the first international hire at Quora (grew India to 70M+ monthly visitors). Before all of that, I was a founder — I started AudioCompass, an audio travel guide company backed by Blume Ventures, which I ran for six years before shutting it down in 2017.
