I am a dynamic and results-driven HR leader with 17 years of experience in spearheading strategic human capital initiatives across various sectors, including start-ups, multinational corporations, and international NGOs. My proven track record in driving business transformation through innovative HR strategies and robust talent management frameworks has enabled me to align people strategies with business goals across diverse geographies, including Asia, the Middle East, the US, and Europe.

Throughout my career, I have developed deep expertise in employee relations, performance management, workforce planning, and cross-cultural leadership. I have successfully led initiatives such as the implementation of Workday and the design of job architecture for multiple regions, championed diversity and inclusion agendas, and fostered a culture of continuous learning and employee engagement. My experience spans various roles, from establishing HR functions from scratch to managing global HR policies and compliance.
