Originally from Hyderabad, India, Sanjay made the U.S. his home after completing a master’s degree at Northeastern University, settling in Colorado.
Sanjay’s consulting expertise spans various industries and technology solutions, from aerospace product lifecycle management to omni-channel digital strategies for CPG/retail, and digital product leadership roles in financial services. Presently, in the public sector, his focus is on modernizing the disease surveillance platform for a state agency. Sanjay has worked globally engaging clients in New Zealand, India, Korea, Finland, France, Germany, the UK, and across the U.S.
Driven by a mantra of creating value for organizations, society, and the world, in 2008 Sanjay started researching a passion project that later became the award-winning, B-Corp social enterprise start-up SLOWCOLOR: A living wage, fair trade textile company working with handloom weavers in the Indian state of Telangana to co-create a collection of naturally dyed textiles using plant and mineral-based dyes from Indian heritage in premium natural and organic yarns.
Sanjay’s service-orientation also led him to serve for seven years as a board member of Seva.org, a non-profit eye care organization that works to build sustainable, equitable eye care systems globally and for two years as President of the United Nations Association, Denver Chapter (UNA-Denver) where he championed Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) initiatives locally. Today he serves on the Colorado Circular Communities Enterprise board (C3) a statewide program that employs a circularity framework for reducing and averting waste.
