I'm Manik! And I like to build.
From spirituality to content, from HR to marketing, and from startups to animal rights ... I dabble into too many things to give myself one tag. But at my core, I love to build things - communities, brands, products, systems, you name it!

This is Everything I do (well, most of it)
I don’t believe in specialising in one domain or cause – it doesn’t make a good pitch but life is messy, so am I! I wear different hats all the time & I’m finally going to own that. Check out everything that makes me, me.





Here's what my People have to Say about me

“ No matter the role or the brief, one thing has been consistent: Manik gets going. While most people are still warming up to an idea, Manik is two drafts in, three documents deep, and probably already debugging the system he just built. He thrives in ambiguity. He works best when the path isn’t laid out. He also brings a level of execution velocity that turns conversations into outcomes very quickly. If you’re building something that needs both soul and structure, scale and sensitivity - give Manik a call. Better yet, give him a canvas and get out of the way. ”
Anshul Sharma
Head of Culture, Comms, PR & Academy, Schbang
“ I taught Manik at Monash when he was getting his Bachelor's degree , but my association with him has continued as he has evolved in his journey as a digital marketing professional. I have worked with him on social media branding and I found him not only savvy in his core area of work but also refreshingly dedicated, sincere, with fresh insights and honest opinions. Young professionals like Manik deserve the right opportunities to shine and I wish him all the success in his professional journey. ”
Jaya Mahajan
Media & Journalism Leader
“ Your sessions were nothing short of amazing - every discussion, every brainstorming moment, and every storytelling lesson felt like a journey into the world of creativity, strategy, and brand magic. What made it truly special was the way you let our imaginations run free - no boundaries, no limits - just pure creative exploration. Every moment was packed with energy, inspiration, and fun. Your unique way of presenting, your ability to engage and challenge us, and the sheer passion you bring to the table made this experience one we will always cherish. We laughed, we learned, and most importantly, we walked away with a deeper love for marketing. ”
