What I'm looking for

I want to lead high-impact technology programmes end-to-end, partner closely with C-suite clients, and deliver measurable outcomes using Agile, structured risk management, and coaching-driven team performance.

I’m a results-driven Senior Project Manager and Client Engagement Leader, turning complex, high-stakes technology work into measurable business outcomes while building long-term client relationships. I’ve managed enterprise IT programmes at Capgemini and now spearhead AI and Blockchain delivery at Accubits Technologies.

At Accubits, I manage concurrent enterprise clients, lead Agile/Scrum delivery, and communicate scope, risks, milestones, and deliverables to C-suite stakeholders. I also coach and mentor Project Managers, with an emphasis on accountability and continuous improvement—recognized through an Accustar (Best Employee) award.

Earlier in my career, I directed road safety consulting projects for the World Bank and Asian Development Bank, led network and content operations for OTT client HOOQ Digital across Southeast Asia, and established a PMO in Chennai to support expansion and governance. I thrive in cross-functional, distributed environments with structured risk management and strong client-first execution.
