I build ESG reporting, carbon accounting, and sustainable project governance across complex organizations.
What I'm looking for
I've supported ESG strategy, GHG accounting, sustainability reporting, and governance across independent consulting, AMD, Krishnaveni Builders, Amazon Development Centre, and engineering education. As an independent ESG Consultant, I built Scope 1 and Scope 2 emission models and Power BI dashboards for carbon accounting, sustainability KPI tracking, and executive reporting.
I bring 13+ years of experience integrating sustainability into project delivery, environmental compliance, risk assessment, stakeholder engagement, and cross-functional programs. My work aligns reporting and disclosure processes with GRI and TCFD while helping teams improve resource use, governance, and data-driven decision-making.
