do that makes all the
difference.

So here’s my story…
Buying. Selling. Making decisions. The intricacies of the human mind have
always intrigued me. I chose to tread a path, which would lead me to
building and marketing successful brands.
My interest graduated into my passion.
The human in the resource
How could two jeans of the same quality with different
labels influence the buying decision?
Started my journey at

With an integrated approach towards business strategy & brand building, I
attracted investors, planned & developed a mind-to-market strategy and then launched

A successful brand, Levitate is positioned as an aspirational, interesting, semi-casual
hang-out between work and home that provides a space to unwind:
“Take it light” with family & friendswithout having to spend a fortune.
Always wanted to work with the best.
Learn, contribute and be among the best.
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to witness and learn from some of the best of minds in the field. Which, I then deployed successfully in creating my own
business brand Levitate.
