About

Hey there! I'm Sagar (but please, say it like "Saagr”)—which, fun fact, translates to "Ocean" in English. Pretty cool, right?

 

I’ve been around the block a few times, dabbling in everything from kickstarting my own start-up to playing the product, project manager at companies. And if I had to throw all that experience into a blender and hit 'puree', the smoothie that would pour out would definitely taste like 'never give up on your dreams, buddy!’ (I adopted this quote from my coach when I won nationals in speed skating!

Anyway, I’ve got a knack for dissecting product experiences and putting them back together, all with a sprinkle of science. I’m all about innovation, crafting stellar products, and understanding the magic that happens when humans and computers become BFFs👯.

I’m a people person through and through, and I love listening to stories about products that just get it right. If you’re into chatting about products that put people first, enterprises that are making a splash or football, hit me up! Arigato!🙏🏼
