I like problems that
don't have a playbook.
I work out the strategy, then build and run the thing that makes it work. I've done it introducing a supplement people had never bought, rebuilding supply chains for resilience after COVID, and getting a new product to market, across food, consulting, and global health.
Who I am
About
I'm an engineer by training, so I tend to build my way to an answer rather than stop at the recommendation. Over the last six years I've worked across a food startup, a global supply chain consulting firm, and a global health organization, and the common thread was never the industry. Each one handed me something no one had built before: a supplement people had never bought, a supply chain whose old rules had just broken, a cookie no machine on the market could cut. My job was to work out the strategy and then build the thing that made it real.
That has meant getting a startup's product from the lab to the production line, redesigning distribution systems for entire countries and a few multinationals, and raising the funding to scale health programs across three countries. I build with AI the same way now, using it to prototype, automate research, and ship small tools quickly.
Where I have worked
Experience
Three roles across food, supply chain, and global health. Open one to see the detail and photos.
How do you scale a new health product from zero to a whole country?
SA Sight and Life A global health organization advising governments and social businesses across 20+ countries.
Dec 2022 – Aug 2025 Rwanda & India
A global health organization advising governments and social businesses across 20+ countries.
I worked on launching a new maternal health product in countries where neither families nor governments were using it yet. I built the funding case and the systems on the ground, then helped scale it to reach hundreds of thousands of women a year.
- 1 Led a 6-member team to redesign demand forecasting and distribution for Nepal's national anemia program serving 3.4M+ people, cutting over-procurement by $200K/year.
- 2 Built a 5-year strategic roadmap for Rwanda's maternal health program that mobilized $4M in donor funding.
- 3 Built the investment case that secured a $12M grant for a private-sector nutrition program in Bangladesh.
- 4 Led a 5,000-participant behavioral study with UNICEF that improved supplement uptake by 30%.
- 5 Built a digital outreach and monitoring platform reaching 24,000+ women a year, with data tools that cut evaluation costs by $80K/year.
- 6 Deployed a 3,000-member door-to-door sales network generating $0.5M/year in revenue.
- 7 Influenced Nepal's drug regulator to exempt import duties on 3 essential health products, cutting procurement costs by 23%.
How do you redesign supply chains after COVID?
MC Miebach Consulting A global supply chain consulting firm, 500+ employees across 22 countries.
Dec 2020 – Nov 2022 Delhi, India
A global supply chain consulting firm, 500+ employees across 22 countries.
When COVID broke the supply chains companies had relied on for years, I helped large manufacturers rebuild them for resilience, not just cost. I modeled global production and distribution networks worth billions, then turned the analysis into specific calls on where to make, hold, and source product.
- 1 Optimized a $3B global production network across 27 plants serving 75+ countries, recommending closures that cut costs by $25M/year.
- 2 Built an Excel-VBA inventory tool that optimized $71M in inventory across South Asia and freed $13M in working capital.
- 3 Ran a sourcing risk assessment for a raw material transition, navigating supply concentration risk.
- 4 Designed a $1M central distribution hub for a fashion retailer serving 800+ outlets.
- 5 Built and delivered a 2-day supply chain modeling workshop, upskilling 20+ consultants.
How do you manufacture a product that has no machine for it?
OS Open Secret A Series B Indian food startup making healthy snacks.
May 2019 – Dec 2020 Mumbai, India
A Series B Indian food startup making healthy snacks.
The cookie we wanted to make could not be cut by any machine on the market, and three custom prototypes failed before I stopped treating it as an equipment problem. Working with the food scientists, we solved it by changing the recipe instead, and I set up the first production site to get it made at scale.
- 1 Managed R&D, design, and production teams to launch the startup's second product line, reporting to the CEO.
- 2 Established the first production site with $4M+ annual output, cutting raw material waste by 11%.

Off the clock
Beyond work
I hike a lot, six-plus treks in the Himalayas, and I lead monsoon treks in the Western Ghats. I play chess (rated around 1698 online, top 2%), I am quietly competitive about world capitals, and long road trips are how I reset. I speak English, Hindi, Tamil, and Kannada.
