Chapter 01 · The Story
Curiosity is the common thread.
ORIGIN
The kid who asked "but why?"
Grew up in India taking things apart, both machines and business models. Learned early that every system has a logic, and if you can find it, you can improve it.
THE LEAP
New countries, zero safety net
Packed up and moved across the world as an international student. Rebuilding context from scratch teaches you to learn faster than the environment changes. It became a superpower.
THE OPERATOR YEARS
Startups → unicorn → enterprise → the deal side
Ran go-to-market across the whole spectrum: startups, hypergrowth at SaaS unicorn Whatfix, then enterprise sales and account management at Dun & Bradstreet. Crossed to the deal side in corporate development, building financial models for an energy firm. Sales taught me people. Deals taught me numbers. Together they taught me judgment.
THE BUILDER YEARS
Builder mode: on
Co-founded and scaled an online community to 30,000+ members. No playbook, just iteration. Then AI erased the excuse of not knowing how to code. I started vibe coding: apps, agents, and automations shipped through pure iteration. Building beats theorizing.
2024–2026
MBA, Rice University
Strategy, AI Technology, and Finance at the Jones School. Built cost models for a Fortune 30 company, explored ETA, designed GTM for a Panamanian real estate giant, won case competitions, and led student organizations. One conviction crystallized: the AI-native operator is the most valuable profile of this decade.
NOW

Leading growth and AI in the staffing world, consulting startups and companies on AI and growth, and documenting the whole journey on @yashintheloop. The long game: found a company. Everything here is a rep toward that.
