Founder & Managing Director

Digital Strings
Mumbai

  • With a proven track record of success in the digital marketing space, I have established myself as a trusted industry expert. I have successfully run a boutique digital marketing agency, Digital Strings, for over 10+ years now.
  • Under my leadership as a Founder & Managing Director at Digital Strings, the digital marketing agency has generated a revenue of 300M+ since its inception.
  • I have built a high-performing team of close to 40+ digital marketing professionals over the years and have managed clients from various verticals including healthcare and wellness, fashion and lifestyle,
    tech, retail, B2B, finance, real estate, etc.
  • I am known in the industry for my ability to deliver ROI-driven digital marketing solutions that amplify digital presence and drive business growth for a brand.
  • I have worked with leading brands such as Narayana Health, Dmart Ready, Syska LED, Manyavar, JL Morisons Group, Asus, LIC Of India, Spar, Senco Gold, Howard Delafield International, AGS Transact, Rate Gain, Medtronic, Bertoli, Northpoint Institute, Cetaphil, Omron, Invisalign, etc. to name a few renowned ones and many more in past 10+ years at Digital Strings.
  • My expertise and reputation in the industry have also led some of the leading mainline advertising/marketing agencies like Nielsen India, Mullen Lowe Lintas, Adfactors PR, and McCann Group to bring on board Digital Strings as their trusted digital execution outsourcing partner.
  • In addition to my entrepreneurial journey, I played a pivotal role prior to forming Digital Strings in setting up the digital practice in a leading PR agency of India, Adfactors PR.
