What I'm looking for
I’m a Business Growth Associate leading business development and partnership initiatives across logistics and supply-chain verticals.

Earlier, I built and delivered impact-focused training as a Mission Catalyst Trainer for graduates, and later served as Head of Learning and Development, designing structured programs for employee skill enhancement. I bring an adaptive, outcomes-driven approach—monitoring weekly performance, identifying improvement areas for operational KPIs, and aligning learning initiatives with business goals.
