    I started my career working as a securitization lawyer at Clifford Chance, one of the world's largest law firms. I then consulted for the Finance Ministry of India, Google and Uber - steadily transitioning from law to regulatory advisory to strategy. I started Swifter (YCW20) after leaving Uber. We built ACH APIs for a B2C use-case (cannabis) and were acquired by the Shopify for Cannabis - Treez. I spent the last 18 months at Treez as Director-Payments. I'm now looking to build/work in credit.
