At Happiest Minds Technologies, I lead Microsoft 365 presales consulting and security solutioning for a BFSI organization. I advise on Zero Trust, identity modernization, and compliance, and demonstrate passwordless authentication with Entra ID, FIDO2, and Windows Hello for Business.

I’ve led demonstrations and proof-of-concept engagements for Microsoft Purview DLP and Defender XDR, and delivered hands-on endpoint security implementations using Sophos Central and Trend Micro Apex One. I also support RFP responses with technical content, effort estimates, and gap assessments.

At Noventiq Services Pvt Ltd, I delivered Microsoft 365 adoption training, pre-sales workshops, and Copilot readiness sessions. Earlier, at PC Solutions Pvt Ltd, I developed collaboration and workflow applications in Microsoft Kaizala using Power Automate, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
