While selling time share holidays to corporate clients, he landed at an agency office and was mistaken as a candidate for an interview. Its been 18 years since that happy mistake.
He believes his key strength has fostering love: with brands, clients and the team he works with. 
 
He's currently President and Head of Office at bates CHI&Partners, Mumbai. He believes that "Bates CHI&Partners" today is a true blue new model agency. It breaks the traditional mould of ‘in-house only talent and resources’, and instead practices true collaboration by pulling together the best resources that the world has to offer, especially in the disciplines of digital, social and retail. As a result, we can offer solutions that are designed to break through more quickly, thus saving clients loads of media bucks. Recent interactions with clients have reaffirmed the need for such a nimble and creative agency model.”
