I am a business and studio operations leader with more than 17 years of experience building and scaling creative businesses across film, VFX, gaming, animation, immersive technologies, and AI-driven content.
My background combines studio operations, business development, strategic partnerships, original IP development, and feature film production. I have led end-to-end delivery, improved workflows, and helped teams deliver projects with stronger quality, speed, and cost efficiency.
I have worked across India, the United States, Japan, and other international markets, building cross-border collaborations and managing relationships with clients, agencies, production partners, distributors, and legal teams. I am comfortable operating at the intersection of creativity, business strategy, and execution.
A major part of my work has been developing content and IP opportunities, including syndication, licensing, merchandising, and co-production. I have also helped studios expand their client base, secure new business, and strengthen operational systems through SOPs, metrics, and team leadership.
My experience includes senior roles in studio delivery, content strategy, media operations, creative direction, production, and talent representation. I have supported both established organizations and startups, often stepping into roles that required building structure, clarifying priorities, and driving growth.
I am especially interested in leadership roles where I can combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution in media, entertainment, immersive content, and AI-enabled production environments.
