India’s First K–12 School of Creativity based in India and Germany Sim and Simmi was an offline-first experiment in reimagining creativity for school students and I got to wear multiple hats while building it from scratch. - Led growth, partnerships, and product strategy across verticals - Forged partnerships with govt bodies, colleges, NGOs & corporates to take creativity beyond classrooms - Designed the full GTM for our offline-first model, including workshops, playbooks, and ops at scale - Ran creative thinking sessions for 2000+ students across institutions like University of Hamburg, University of Cottbus, SSCBS, DTU and more It was messy, ambitious, and deeply fun - everything a first build should be.
