Hello! I’m Pri.
I build, I think, I write.
My work has always explored how humans navigate trust, power, and systems of selection, whether in relationships, organisations, or AI-driven ecosystems.
I started out as an engineer, moved into product strategy and systems design. Along the way, I founded a modern matchmaking advisory, wrote a relationships column for a national newspaper, advised governments on innovation, began teaching at IIT Madras, and guiding leaders on decision intelligence.
None of these were detours, they were all part of the same inquiry - how people choose, how systems shape those choices, and how trust gets built (or broken) at scale.
These days, my focus is on AI strategy, governance, and the future of leadership. But the same questions that drove my relationship work including autonomy, power, belonging, and modern identity, still shape how I think about alignment, design, and decision-making in AI systems.
My first book, coming soon, is a memoir and social commentary on modern Indian matchmaking. It’s based on a decade of helping people search for love in a world of biodatas, ghosting, and parental pressure. It’s funny, sharp, sometimes painful, and full of hope for how we can love better and choose with intention.
This newsletter is still called Shapely Gal, inspired by the Gale–Shapley algorithm for stable matches. I use it as a metaphor for all systems that govern interactions and shape human outcomes, from marriage markets to AI-mediated decisions.
If you're curious about how technology, leadership and human systems intersect, stick around. Let’s figure out the future, intentionally.
