Get to Know Me
Dhruv currently resides in Somerset, NJ with his wife Ektaa. Dhruv and Ektaa enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling, and playing pickleball. In his free time, Dhruv likes to play golf and woodwork in his garage. Before joining Northwestern Mutual, Dhruv graduated Rutgers Business School with a B.S. in Supply Chain Management. He was a demand planner at Toys “R” Us and then at Arla Foods. As the son of immigrants and business owners, Dhruv realized how important it is to financially plan for the future. Surrounded by financial professionals like his brother who works on Wall Street, his wife and his father-in-law who are both CPAs, and his mother-in-law who is also a financial advisor, Dhruv decided to transition into a new career path and help those who have the same values.
Lending a hand in my community.
As part of Northwestern Mutual, I'm proud to help accelerate the search for better childhood cancer treatments while supporting families undergoing treatment, and survivors from late effects. Here are some of the organizations we partner with:
Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer (ALSF)
ALSF funds cancer research, raises awareness, and supports the families of children with cancer. Since 2012, Northwestern Mutual, its employees, and financial professionals like me have donated more than $20 million to support ALSF and fund over 400,000 research hours.

Beads of Courage is an art-in-medicine program that helps kids with cancer tell their unique treatment story through colorful beads that are symbols of their courage.

How Northwestern Mutual helps you live the life you want.
When people feel better about their money, good things happen—they become more confident and feel more secure. For more than 160 years, Northwestern Mutual has helped people achieve the financial flexibility they need to live more and worry less.
Being a mutual company means Northwestern Mutual reports to its clients, not Wall Street. They don't believe in chasing fads or taking undue risk for short-term gains. Instead, they take a long-term approach—both in the way we help people plan to reach their goals, and in the way they do business. This has served their clients (and mine) well through all kinds of economic ups and downs, including wars, recessions, even the recent pandemic.
It's why I'm happy to be part of a company that's in it for the long-haul and prioritizes clients over profit.
