CHAPTER 01 • THE JOURNEY

I build institutions that create lasting value.

I am a serial entrepreneur and brand architect with 19+ years of experience founding and scaling high-impact ventures in regulated sectors, sustainability, education, and professional services.

As Founder of Golden Owl Design, I built a strategy-led branding firm from the ground up, delivering ₹85L+ revenue in the first six months with full P&L accountability.

I founded Turmerich, a sustainability-focused organic spices and lifestyle brand with certified manufacturing partnerships and full compliance to India Organic, FSSAI & ISO frameworks.

I also established the Freelance Designer Association of India (FDAI) — India’s first structured national professional body for freelance designers.
