With considerable experience in the advertising industry both as a copywriter and as an Art Director, Siddharth brings a rather schizophrenic set of skills to the CS table. Holding a Bachelors in Foreign Trade from the University of Pondicherry, he quickly realized that his passions lay far removed from the worlds of finance and planning.

Throwing himself into the cultivated chaos of the ad world, he's since worked on major campaigns for the likes of Sony, Jotun Paints, Eqarat.com Real Estate and Samsung. Including seminal work for Universitas21Global MBA, Rasasi Diamond Jewellery and WorldSpace Satellite Radio. He has an intuitive understanding of what it takes to establish a brand and turn it into something iconic - and in that regard, relishes the experience of swimming with the big fish, nearly as much as he enjoys making the underdog a force to be reckoned with.

Wanderlust, good food, great conversation, small thrift stores, poetry, film and incomprehensibly loud music keep him chained to a somewhat loose definition of sanity.
