Hello, Sat Sri Akal, Namaste, Hola!Here are a few of the things that I'm passionate about, and would love to connect with like-minded individuals. Outdoor recreation, animal welfare, entrepreneurship, traveling, mindfulness practices especially in business, plant-based solutions to health and environment and most of all, making a human connection.I'm supported in the following ventures by an amazing partner and co-founder, my wife. We travel full-time, out of an RV when we're in the United States and internationally for a few months a year, mostly in India. Co-starter of TripOutside.com in 2018, an outdoor gear rental and adventure booking platform. We're on a mission to provide the easiest way to book an outdoor adventure. We're building a community for outdoor enthusiasts to connect with local businesses and help more people enjoy the outdoors and in turn, work to protect it. SevaStray.com is where fashion is helping keep art and dogs alive. We're using a B-corp model that started out of the need to help struggling non-profit organizations that are doing incredible work with stray dogs in India. India has over 30 million stray dogs and many of them are suffering on the streets. We're working on finding incredible, authentic, Indian products that support the education and entrepreneurship of women and underprivileged communities. The products are also an art form that has been around for hundreds of years but is quickly disappearing due to the modernization of India. With each purchase, we donate to help the dogs with 3 key initiatives: Spay and neuter campaigns, vaccinations and helping sick and injured dogs. Previously, I was a Director of Merchandising for The Home Depot, the world's largest home improvement retailer. I’ve worked within multiple functional groups and different departments and have a record of success: driving sales, managing vendors, implementing process improvement, and developing merchandising and services strategy.
