Growing up, I loved stories. And I found them .everywhere - in numbers, words, music The first 17 years of my work life took me deeper into the world of numbers - Impact Venture Capital, Strategy, Investment Banking and Investment Management in companies such as Lazard, JP Morgan, Fidelity, Unitus Ventures, Prudential and Gray Matters Capital. I reserved my love for words and music for weekends, collecting word puns and historical triva over Sufi and folk music and attempting fiction stories. I recently co-founded Kahaniyah - a storytelling venture combining my love for numbers, words and stories. My articles have been published in Economic Times, Huffington Post, Business Insider, India Development Review, Factor Daily and Your Story.
