From physics to founder — to an advisor focused on what works

I I started my journey in Delhi and moved to Norway for my education. After completing a PhD in physics at the University of Oslo, I stayed. Norway became home.

My career hasn’t followed a straight line — and I’m glad it hasn’t. I’ve spent years building products, leading teams, and helping companies make hard decisions across tech, platforms, strategy, and sustainability.

At some point, I stopped advising and started building myself.

The founder experience that changed everything

Tørn was a marketplace designed to reduce waste in the building materials industry. We grew quickly, built strong partnerships, and created real value — for a while. But building from scratch is never a smooth ride. The challenges grew faster than the team did, and after a tough but necessary decision, we shut it down.

That experience changed how I see almost everything. It forced me to let go of theory and learn what actually holds under pressure.

The process I bring today

Now I’m back in an advisory role — but very much changed by what I’ve been through. I designed my own process based on founder experience, inspired by the best programs and books, but cut down to what actually works under startup pressure.

I work with founders, investors, and leadership teams who are navigating complexity with limited time and high stakes. I don’t bring generic playbooks. I bring perspective, pattern recognition, and a way of working that helps teams move forward with clarity and confidence.
