I run AEO experiments, build data pipelines, and produce the content myself. 7 years across Adani and Airbnb India, MBA in Business Analytics from UMass Dartmouth. My edge is closing the loop: insight → tool → content → business action.
Live tools, documented experiments, and data pipelines — each with a GitHub repo and real methodology.
A live Streamlit tool that takes a source inventory CSV from any AI-search tracking experiment and surfaces source types, content shapes, domain persistence, and citation patterns — then generates a prioritised content action plan. Built from a real multi-day AEO experiment, not a hypothetical demo.
URL volatility does not mean source-pattern volatility. The exact URLs changed across snapshots, but the source types and content shapes were consistent. The stronger strategy is building the kind of content the answer engine repeatedly trusts — not chasing a single citation slot.
The research experiment behind the tool above. A structured 7-day AEO experiment: four Perplexity snapshots on a target buyer-intent query, a parallel distribution experiment across five organic channels, and a Claude Code-powered workflow that classified 40 citation instances, extracted source-shape patterns, mapped 8 adjacent query clusters, and produced a 30-day content architecture plan.
Answer engines reward source shape over domain authority. A smaller competitor held a citation slot across all 4 snapshots using a single, query-aligned product page. Platform trust also dominates semantic relevance — a relevant comment still fails if the platform doesn't keep it visible.
A Streamlit app that runs four attribution models — first-touch, last-touch, linear, and time-decay — side by side on the same customer journey dataset. Shows how channel revenue rankings and ROI shift depending on which model is applied, with auto-generated insights and a downloadable action plan.
Last-touch may credit Paid Search with 60% of revenue — but Linear and First-touch often reveal that Email drove the first engagement for every customer who eventually converted. Cutting Email would quietly drain the pipeline that Paid Search closes. Attribution models are lenses, not ground truth.
Full end-to-end data pipeline: raw CSV data into SQL Server (Docker), Python sentiment analysis using NLTK VADER, and an interactive Power BI dashboard published to Power BI Service. Built to surface why customer satisfaction scores were declining despite increased marketing spend.
Review text sentiment doesn't align with star ratings — qualitative feedback adds critical context beyond numeric scores. Social media showed high engagement volume but weak conversion, suggesting a channel attribution problem before scaling spend.
An AI-powered qualification workflow that turns raw inbound leads into a CRM-ready output — with lead scores, fit levels, qualification reasons, recommended next actions, and draft follow-up emails. Also includes n8n automation assets for extending the workflow into a fully automated pipeline with webhook triggers, CRM updates, and Slack notifications.
Reduced estimated lead review time from 50 minutes to 5 minutes across a sample workflow — 10 min per lead manually vs 1 min automated. Identified 3 high-fit leads out of 5 with qualification reasoning attached to each.
I'm comfortable owning both the strategy and the execution. Fluent in Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, and Canva — strategy and production in the same brain.
Shot and edited a profile video for a UMass graphic designer — commissioned by the UMass Marketing Office. Merged multicam footage with external mic audio, colour graded, and delivered in one day. The video was shared publicly by the UMass Communications Lead, who noted it captured Melanie's "skills and passion."
Multicam shoot merged in post · External mic audio sync · Colour graded · Shipped in one day from shoot to final delivery.
An Instagram page dedicated to video editing work — cuts, colour grades, motion graphics, and visual storytelling. Built to document the craft and demonstrate range across different content types and styles.
Someone who understands both distribution strategy and post-production can brief a creator, evaluate output quality, and produce assets independently when speed matters. That's a different profile from a strategist who can't open Premiere.
From a CMO and a Video Editor/Photographer who worked with me directly at UMass.
"Himanshu has been working with our marketing team to accomplish various tasks. Recently, he created an analysis reflecting the efficacy of our paid marketing channels on FY24 enrollment. It was quite informative and has launched us into more investigation. Himanshu is a pleasure to work with. He takes instructions well and gets the job done. I highly recommend him."
"I really enjoyed having Himanshu as a Marketing Assistant. He always brought a positive attitude and great work ethic to any project he was involved in. We were able to hand him a variety of projects, from video post-production to media management, and his broad knowledge and willingness to jump right in was always evident. I highly recommend Himanshu to anyone in search of a talented, down to earth, and versatile new addition to their team!"
"77 commits, every day, finished strong, honest about what didn't work — that's rare. Your distribution instinct, and the 'platform trust beats relevance' insight — those landed."
Strategy, data, and production — across both sides of the table.
Roles are shifting. Titles are changing. Teams are shrinking — because AI is compressing what used to take five people into what one person can own end to end. The question employers are actually asking is no longer "can you do the activity?" It is "can you own the outcome?" That is the shift I have been building toward.
