I first got to know Saranya many years ago on one of my first trips to India. She is wickedly smart and extremely patient — which is a remarkable combination! It has been my pleasure to watch her grow and evolve as the product she leads does the same. I have never seen Saranya back down from a challenge, and her fearless curiosity is inspiring.

What is your current job?

I am the Product Owner of a SaSS product called AdaptiveU, which enables remote learning and training.

What do you love about it?

Every day, I get to learn about things related to technology and keep myself updated

What is challenging about it?

Everything, right from building, finding the product-market fit, and keeping it relevant at all times for the customers.

Have you ever suffered from Impostor Syndrome? If so, how did you deal with it?

Of course, I have always had some nagging feeling that I didn’t belong or was not good enough. I was open about it to my friends, got suggestions, and I overcame the fear.
