What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and community impact.

I am a dedicated Program Manager with over 8 years of experience in project management, community engagement, and fundraising. My journey has been marked by a proven track record of leading successful projects that drive organizational goals. I excel in business process improvement, team management, and stakeholder collaboration, ensuring that every initiative I undertake is executed with precision and care.

At Habitat for Humanity India, I have developed and implemented comprehensive project plans, conducted needs assessments, and maintained meticulous documentation for audits and reviews. My role has allowed me to engage with communities, mobilize resources, and establish strong networks with local governments and stakeholders. I am particularly proud of my ability to organize impactful fundraising events, which have significantly contributed to our mission of building homes and improving lives.

My educational background, including a PGDBM and a Bachelor's in Business Administration, complements my hands-on experience in the field. I am committed to continuous improvement and capacity building, always seeking to enhance team efficiency and project outcomes. I look forward to leveraging my skills and experiences to contribute to meaningful projects that make a difference.
