Hi Amulya,
Thanks for reaching out to us!
Your work experience sounds excellent! I am impressed by the team management experience, promotions, and awards. Plus the expertise in clean energy should be interesting to b-schools as that's an area of interest for many other students. All in all, not much to improve work-wise, just keep up the good work and make sure you have a stellar resume and recommendations that reflect those things.
I'm really curious about your career goal to start a food chain! Since it's so different from what you've already done, have you had any exposure to the industry? How will you make the switch? I hope there's an interesting story here, and something you can show to prove a connection to your vision. If not, consider rethinking that (at least for application purposes), or perhaps making that your long-term goal with something in between that bridges the gap.
Otherwise, I think your GMAT is the biggest opportunity to improve. That's going to be really tough at some of the schools you mentioned, especially Ross, but others too where your score is below average. Can you retake? Can you try the GRE instead? In particular, your verbal score will be concerning. So at the very least, make sure your written materials are in excellent shape, and try to have your recommenders mention your strong communication skills.
Good luck!
Kate
