My journey has been marked by a commitment to driving strategic initiatives that enhance organizational effectiveness and employee engagement. I have partnered with C-suite executives to implement change management strategies, talent retention programs, and diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.

Throughout my career, I have held leadership positions where I scaled teams, launched performance management platforms, and orchestrated significant organizational restructuring. My achievements include winning the CEO Award for People Partnership at OYO Hotels and Homes and the CHRO Award for highest employee NPS growth. I hold an MBA in Human Resource Management and a Bachelor's degree in Psychology, equipping me with the skills to build effective HR frameworks that support business objectives.
