14 Years of Building, Advising, and Operating
From bootstrapping a 40-person digital marketing agency to launching AI-powered ad networks and advising startups across Asia — this is the full story.
Work with 2Stallions
The Journey
In 2012, I co-founded 2Stallions with a simple belief: businesses in Asia needed more than campaigns, they needed marketing that actually drove growth.
What began as a small venture has become an award-winning, remote-first, full-service agency with a 40+ person team. Today, we work across Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and India with clients ranging from RedBull, Raffles Hotel, Epson, Dulux, Brother, HL Bank, Sompo, Wavin, Nissin Cup Noodles to ambitious SMEs scaling fast.
But services weren't enough. I wanted to create platforms that could shape markets.
That's why I launched ChutneyAds, Bangladesh's first AI-powered digital out-of-home network. We started with 200 screens and are scaling towards 1,000+, with the goal of delivering 1 billion monthly impressions in a region often ignored by global advertising networks.
Supporting other founders has been just as important to me.
Through angel investing, I've backed and advised startups solving real problems across Asia. My portfolio, together with investments via CG Ventures, includes 30+ startups, many of whom I'm actively advising. For me, investment isn't just about capital — it's about being a sounding board when founders need it most.
Always Learning, Always Growing
If there's a thread that runs through my career, it's this: I've never stood still.
Each step has stretched me beyond my comfort zone — the same mindset I encourage in the people I work with.
Selected for the NUS Overseas College – Silicon Valley, where I studied and explored entrepreneurship firsthand.
Chosen for the Google Elevator program to accelerate agency growth.
Completed my Quantic EMBA to sharpen strategy and leadership skills.
Currently pursuing the SID Board Readiness Programme, preparing to bring digital and AI transformation expertise into boardrooms.
What Drives Me
If I had to put it simply: I believe in doing the work.
Hands-on leadership
I've scaled teams, managed finances, grown revenue, and lived through the same challenges I now help others navigate.
Extroverted introvert
Speaking and training didn't come naturally. I pushed myself into it because sharing knowledge creates more impact than keeping it to myself.
Work ethic
I lead by example. Hustle and grind matter when they're directed at what truly moves the needle.
Curiosity for what's next
From AI automation to new models of transformation, I'm driven by what helps businesses work smarter, not just harder.
Recognition
Along the way, my work has been featured in BFM89.9, Business News, The Exchange Asia, Business Today, New Straits Times, CNA938, MoneyFM 89.3, New In Asia, Prothom Alo, The Daily Star, and more.
I've spoken on global stages as Chairperson of Programmatic Pioneers Summit Asia, moderated panels at eTail Asia (2024 & 2025), delivered growth marketing sessions at the Llama Incubator, and been featured in Marketing Magazine.
I've also trained ASEAN governments on digital transformation and worked with companies like Sony, Toyota, DHL, Fuji Xerox, Interpol, and MCYS.
