Operations & Strategy

I specialize in operational design, strategic planning, and cross-sector program execution — spanning telemedicine, urban development, cultural entrepreneurship, and nonprofit growth.

Designing systems that expand access, strengthen communities, and reimagine how we live

Fractional COO &
Development Lead

A long-term engagement at a telemedicine company focused on expanding access to acute and critical care — growing from research and proposal support into a fractional executive role overseeing operations, strategy, and communications. Omnicure's platform serves hospitals and health systems in resource-limited settings, and I contributed to its development at every stage of organizational growth including its participation in a federal COVID-19 emergency response initiative.

URBAN DEVELOPMENT

An active and growing area of practice — grounded in graduate-level research in urban policy, GIS analysis, and community development, and built out through direct civic involvement in St. Louis.

Entrepreneur

Building organizations, producing work, and running operations across five independent ventures in South Asian arts, design, media, and culture — all conceived, launched, and operated independently.

Director of Operations

A fiscally sponsored South Asian arts organization brought me in to establish its operational foundation — and I left it structurally, visually, and programmatically transformed. Drew on an independent background in curatorial practice, South Asian performance arts, organizational design, and visual communication to build the infrastructure, programming, and digital presence from the ground up over two years.
