Vivek Gangaramani

Principal

Vivek specializes in the critical foundation of operational excellence: data clarity and integrity. He understands that before advanced analytics can drive impact, the underlying data must be clean, structured, and consistent.

He focuses on the essential "hygiene" of data—cleansing, organizing, and standardizing messy information to create a reliable single source of truth. By mastering these fundamentals, Vivek ensures that KindPulse clients build their strategy on a bedrock of accuracy rather than assumptions.
