The Wisdom Hatch Fund

About

As the founder of Wisdom Hatch, I am building India's biggest investment community on www.wisdomhatch.com, where I combine my passion for teaching and entrepreneurship. I have over 10 years of experience in strategy, management consulting, and education, working with leading organizations such as BCG, Next EdVentures, and the Government of India.

I have helped launch and grow several ventures in the education sector, such as www.MyMBAJourney.com, which supports students applying to top MBA programs abroad. I am proud to have mentored hundreds of students who have landed at world-class universities such as Harvard, INSEAD, Wharton, MIT, and Columbia. I am also a mentor at UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network – Youth, where I contribute to the global goals of education, innovation, and social impact.
