About Me

20+ Years Experience

700K+ Students Served

1000+ Institutions

7+ Major Projects

I'm a seasoned technology leader with over 20 years of experience in driving digital transformation across the education sector, specializing in large-scale ERP, LMS, and IT infrastructure systems. As Associate Vice President – Technology & Services at Nspira Management Services Pvt. Ltd., I lead strategic initiatives that unify academic and administrative operations across The Narayana Group — one of India's largest educational networks serving over 700,000 students across 1,000+ branches.

My passion lies in building intelligent systems that make education smarter, more accessible, and more data-driven — from Kindergarten to Postgraduate professional colleges, including Medical, Dental, Nursing, and Engineering institutions

Throughout my career, I've architected multiple digital ecosystems — from custom ERP platforms to mobile-first learning systems and hospital management solutions. My ability to translate business goals into technology roadmaps has made me a trusted leader for innovation, process automation, and IT modernization.

"I strongly believe that technology in education must do more than digitize — it must personalize, simplify, and scale learning experiences."
