He serves on boards of high growth tech startups and advises top VCs, private equity firms, and CEOs on growth—both in business and in life. Before that? He performed 1,000+ concerts and co-founded a band with Grammy winning artists. Even earlier? He spent time training as a monk. With advanced degrees from MIT and NEU, Sandeep brings a mix of strategy, wisdom, and creativity to help you level up—professionally, as a leader, and in life.
