His select clients include Project ECHO & ECHO India, JSW Foundation, Tara Climate Foundation, and VAAGDHARA. Rohan has a deep interest in issue areas of health and rural development. He is also a firm believer in the power of collaborative philanthropy, on which he has steered multiple sector-wide convenings, with organisations like The Gates Foundation.

Rohan received his MBA from XLRI Jamshedpur and completed his studies in chemical engineering from NIT Allahabad. Before Bridgespan, Rohan was working as a management consultant at Accenture Strategy for 3 years. He lives in Mumbai, along with his wife, Neha, and loves spending free time reading Indian contemporary history and politics, catching up on movies, and, of late, spending time at the gym.
