Blah Blah :

Over the past years, I’ve led 20+ healthcare projects — four of which are in active commercial implementation and received government funding to develop a medical screening tool (pivoting toward a second grant opportunity). In EdTech I designed, built a startup and launched a mobile app on both the App Store and Google Play (currently shelved while I refocus resources), and I co-founded an early career-design venture that taught me what to scale and when to seek investment.

More Blah Blah Blah:

I build health and learning systems that prepare people for an uncertain future. As an aspiring – social entrepreneur & innovator, I combine research, foresight, and real-world design to create lasting impact. I had also achieved successful product integration and collaboration with Aravind Eye Care System, Sankara Nethralaya, and ZEISS—recognized leaders in global eye care.

Bonus Blah Blah Blah for reading “More Blah Blah Blah”:

Thanks for reading “More Blah Blah Blah”. I’ve worked on the ground in health systems, built learning ventures from scratch, and used futures thinking to map what’s next. My journey as an aspiring social entrepreneur has always been about one thing: reimagining how people live, learn, and thrive.

From an early stage, I realized that traditional pathways rarely capture my curiosity and appetite for experimentation. My practice pairs practical product development with speculative scenario work. I develop prototypes that solve today’s needs (medical devices, learning tools) while prototyping possible futures, narrative scenarios, speculative interfaces, and design fictions to test how emerging technologies could reshape healthcare and education. Much of this futures work is currently in development and I’m actively seeking collaborators and research partners to refine and exhibit these concepts.

And just one more thing…

If you smell..what the rock is ..no not that..

I got two words for ya…no..not this..

Ahem..Should I say this in Public..or ?

What if they…….…okay.. let me say it anyway..

Here’s “that” thing: I’m a self-proclaimed philosopher, at times weird, but best understood when you meet me in person or if you have the world’s no.1 in demand skill i.e.,”Empathy”. When I’m not building products you can see me riding motorcycles in the mountain roads, alone at the beach, reading books for hours at the public library, taking long walks in the streets, observing and documenting cuteness in designs, children and nature. I don’t use social media including Linkedin, off TV since my grade 12, however I remain an avid fan of discovery, nat-geo, pro-wrestling and Sci-fi. I could be misunderstood as a “spy” or ‘your next detective target’ as I take some time to communicate virtually.  I really love to learn and apply new skills and I could possibly gain knowledge and inspiration from amazing people like you…yeah you!

Did I get Education or Learning? – For me it was “Learning”. I hope to continue learning always…

“I completed my undergraduate degree at BITS Pilani – Elite School of Optometry, where I gained foundational knowledge in community patient care and medical technologies. During this time, I sought opportunities beyond the classroom to understand real-world applications…thanks to my principal respected Dr Krishna Kumar and my professors respected Dr Anuradha, Dr Rashima and others. Then, I collaborated with top hospitals in India, contributing to healthcare product development and patient-centred projects, some of which were successfully commercialized. These experiences taught me the nuances of translating technical ideas into tangible solutions, understanding user needs, and navigating complex organizational landscapes.

My professional journey is complemented by a rigorous and continuous commitment to learning. I have earned/continue to earn course certifications from globally recognized institutions including Imperial College London, Stanford University, University of Pennsylvania, Johns Hopkins University, University of Michigan etc…covering healthcare innovation, Psychology, AI in education, design thinking, and futures foresight. These programs equipped me with tools to analyze complex problems, anticipate emerging trends, and design human-centered solutions. More importantly, they strengthened my mindset: approaching challenges with curiosity, resilience, and a willingness to continuously experiment. It equipped me to approach complex problems with analytical rigor and creative solutions.”

“Further..to approach complex problems, I integrate design thinking, futures foresight, and human-centered experimentation. Through certifications from IDEO U, UNESCO, and IFTF, I have honed my ability to anticipate emerging trends, ideate innovative solutions, and prototype projects that balance practicality with transformative potential. This methodological rigor complements my hands-on experience, enabling me to bridge the gap between theory and real-world impact.”

Okay..we are nearing the end of my “Blah Blah Blah”..Did I miss something..Oh Yes, I forgot to mention (just in case you skipped my home page)…. I co-founded a healthcare-focused NGO, working to enhance patient outcomes in primary eyecare and strengthen access to critical eyecare services. This experience deepened my understanding of social entrepreneurship, stakeholder engagement, and the power of mission-driven innovation. I also ran multiple education and career-oriented startups, exploring AI-driven learning and career coaching platforms. While some ventures were early-stage or temporarily paused, they provided invaluable lessons in experimentation, user-centric design, and strategic thinking. These experiences reflect my iterative approach: learning from each project, applying insights, and continuously striving for real-world impact.”

My Childhood hero (who is invisible) says one should “Never Give Up”. I never gave up on my dreams. Innovation and curiosity drive me towards thrill-seeking action-packed adventures. The world for me is one Earth. Differences apart, I wish we should come together and solve today’s complex challenges to make this world a better place with lots of love, care, empathy and happiness.
