What I'm looking for

I seek roles in learning & development or training leadership where I can design practical programs, use AI-driven tools, and drive measurable performance and growth.

I am a learning and development professional with experience designing and delivering training, coaching, and consulting programs across corporate and startup environments. I have built programs using Gen AI tools, created voice & accent and behavioural-skills courses, and delivered large-scale employability and performance-review training.

I have led sales, marketing, and training initiatives—making junior associates job-ready, launching coaching offerings, and supporting business growth through Google Business Profile and Bing Maps optimizations. I have worked with startups, training organisations, and academic institutions to generate leads, design meta ads campaigns, and run transformational training projects.

My background includes an MBA (HR & Marketing) and ongoing PhD (part-time) coursework; I focus on practical, hands-on learning experiences, measurable outcomes, and using emerging tools like ChatGPT, Deepseek and Gemini to enhance training effectiveness.
