An Arts graduate with nearly two decades of experience in the travel trade industry, I bring a unique blend of personal passion and professional expertise to curating exceptional journeys across India and the subcontinent.
Growing up in an Indian Army family, I had the privilege of traveling extensively during my childhood across diverse regions of India, which instilled in me a deep appreciation for its cultural and geographical richness.
Over the years, I have worked with some of the most esteemed organizations in the industry, including Abercrombie & Kent India, where I managed markets such as the UK, US, Canada, France, Turkey, Israel, and Mexico, and TCI Go Vacation India, where I handled clients from Switzerland, Germany, Austria, and the Netherlands. These experiences have honed my ability to understand the expectations of diverse international travellers and deliver customized travel products that exceed their expectations.
My professional journeys have taken me across India’s major iconic destinations—Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Assam, Nagaland, Hyderabad, Punjab, and Uttar Pradesh—as well as to neighbouring countries including Nepal, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives. This extensive exposure enables me to design authentic, memorable travel experiences that highlight the cultural, natural, and historical richness of the region.
Beyond work, I enjoy playing cricket and badminton, traveling with loved ones, and spending quality time with family and friends.
