About

I'm a purpose-driven sustainability professional with over 12 years of experience helping companies not just meet environmental regulations—but turn them into opportunities for long-term value creation. My work lies at the intersection of environmental compliance, circular economy thinking, and marketing innovation.

As the Founder & CEO of Neubrain Solutions, I lead a team that blends AI-driven martech with sustainability strategy. We help brands modernize the way they approach compliance, outreach, and operational growth. My core focus is on supporting companies—especially manufacturers, importers, and product-based businesses—through complex transitions like Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) implementation, ESG reporting, and sustainability-led process redesign.

Over the years, I’ve served as an advisor to multiple waste-tech startups and environmental organizations. From guiding ESG roadmaps and sustainability audits to helping businesses structure their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives, I’ve worked closely with both early-stage ventures and established enterprises across sectors.

I bring both technical understanding and practical know-how to the table. I know the policy side of waste and sustainability, but I also understand the ground-level challenges of operations, branding, and stakeholder engagement. That’s why I often act as a bridge between compliance teams, leadership, and marketing or technology teams—ensuring that sustainability isn’t siloed but embedded across the business.



What I Offer:



  • Hands-on guidance for setting up and maintaining EPR systems
  • ESG reporting frameworks tailored to your industry and stakeholder needs
  • Circular economy planning and compliance strategy
  • AI-powered marketing tools to support green messaging and brand outreach
  • CSR implementation support with real social and environmental impact
  • Business automation for sustainability-focused organizations

If you’re a founder, sustainability officer, or brand leader trying to balance compliance, impact, and growth—I’d love to explore how I can support your journey. Let’s build something future-proof, together.
