As Principal Product Head at Vodafone Idea, I lead the Fixed Line Data portfolio — architecting next-gen connectivity, SASE, SD-WAN, Private 5G, and AI-powered security solutions that power India's largest enterprises.

My journey began in the trenches of telecom product management at Tata Communications, Tata Teleservices, and Sify. From launching India's first commercial SD-WAN to scaling IoT platforms for smart cities, I've consistently delivered products that don't just work — they transform industries.
