“More music, less noise…”

Through my unique work experience and creative pursuits, I've cultivated my passion for media and technology.

I've spent the past 7+ years in the digital space from Marketing & Content Strategy to Sales & Entrepreneurship.

I've also built a small business chasing my love of music by creating a production company, Klasikhz Music, specializing in South Asian & Hip-Hop fusion since 2006.

Whether it's digital strategy or ad sales, I've utilized creativity and analysis to ensure delivery against business KPI's. I have a proven track record of establishing strong relationships, retaining business, and managing portfolios which has resulted in revenue growth for companies.

I know how to build a pipeline, negotiate deals, present effectively, and hit sales targets.

My last corporate role was at YuMe where I led platform SaaS sales for a small team. I then took a leap of faith with my music business by partnering with an entertainment company that services the live event market, while working part-time at a fitness start-up (which led to music placements on "America's Got Talent" and "Shark Tank").

I was also privileged to win "Best Music" for a viral Indian coffee ad the same year I was published in Mashable about the future of South-Asian remixes.

I immigrated from India as a boy and learned music was the language that could unify. I am passionate about remixing media, culture, and technology. I also believe in giving back and using animal activism as a way to make change in the world.

I'm a Papa of 1, Dog Daddy of 4, and a lover of Hip-Hop.
