A problem-solving timeline

From business brief to working system.

Recent work first, followed by the experiences that shaped it. My approach stays consistent: understand the problem, find the leverage, then make the solution practical.

01 BITSoMMBA · Marketing, e-commerce & operations

Learning to connect strategy with execution.

The focus

I am specialising in marketing, e-commerce and operations, where a good strategy must work for the customer, the market and the people delivering it.

How I practise

For Flipkart WiRED, I mapped a food-delivery business from customer journey to dark stores. For TCPL, I developed a Korean-noodle go-to-market strategy.

What it signals WiRED × 2 · TCPL

Two national semi-finals at Flipkart WiRED; top 13 at TCPL. Beyond competitions, I prototyped an AI campaign tracker at PreQL and lead AI sessions for case work.

02 BigBasketStrategic Initiative Intern · Apr to Jun 2026

Making inventory loss easier to understand and act on.

The question

Write-offs were visible; the reasons behind them were scattered. How could the team spot loss early enough to act before it repeated?

What I built

I studied the inventory process before proposing fixes. Bringing untracked returns and SKU-level causes into daily reporting replaced a two-day information lag with a shared view of loss.

What proved it ~₹20L

saved, with write-offs moving from 1.21% to 0.88% of sales. It strengthened my belief that better data and automation make action easier.

03 Himanshu Travel LineOperations, growth & key accounts · 2023 to 2025

Giving customers a reason to choose more than price.

The question

A bus operator serving schools, colleges, hospitals and B2C customers. The market was price-sensitive, but reliability mattered just as much.

What I built

I made GPS, cameras and reliable service part of the proposition. Managing key accounts alongside routes and dispatch helped connect the promise to day-to-day delivery.

What proved it ₹2.5Cr

in B2B revenue from two new contracts and five expanded fleets. Vehicle availability rose 26% as the operating system became more dependable.

04Internships & undergraduate foundationMarketing · consulting · research · leadership

The earlier chapters taught me to research, communicate and lead.

Marketing

At IKONA Media, I helped build creator and campus-ambassador infrastructure, supporting 50+ creators and a 40% lift in social reach.

Consulting & research

At Consortico, I led a five-member team to investigate volunteer attrition, combining outreach audits, user mapping and NGO benchmarking into a six-month growth strategy.

Leadership

Rotaract taught me how to take responsibility for people and execution. Today, I continue that through MBA mentoring, AI sessions and hands-on project building.

Marketing: Brand Equity, Customer Centricity & Go-to-Market

How I work: Lean Six Sigma gives me a practical lens for improving processes, products and operating efficiency: define the friction, test the change and make the better way repeatable.

Beyond the work

The other things that keep me curious: music, a pool table, a new place and the next meal worth planning around.

01 · Music & singing
Off the clock
A different kind of expression.

At the table
Angles, patience and a good game.
03 · Different cuisines
At the table, again
Always curious about a new flavour.
