Co-Founder - Dubai

Over the past 20 years, I’ve had the opportunity to learn from the best during my career both in India and the UAE.

I am of the belief that learning is a lifelong process and have been inspired by Albert Einstein’s quote, “Once you stop learning, you start dying.”  This, coupled with the fact that I come from a family of educators, I am passionate about sharing my learnings with others through trainings.

In addition to my training endeavours, I am an avid blogger, and I am committed to delivering impactful messaging that resonates with audiences and try to drive positive change.
Public speaking is another avenue through which I express my passion for sharing knowledge and inspiring others. Whether addressing small groups or large audiences, I bring energy, enthusiasm, and authenticity to every speaking engagement, leaving a lasting impression and sparking meaningful conversations.

Beyond my professional pursuits, I am deeply committed to giving back to the community through volunteer work. Serving as a lead of a 600-member team, across 21 orphanage homes in the city of Hyderabad, India; or being part of the organising team member of Mercithon 2017 and 2023 - I have had the privilege of contributing to causes close to my heart.

My work is guided by a set of core values that include integrity, empathy, and a commitment to excellence. I approach every task with a sense of purpose and dedication, striving to make a positive impact in everything I do and continue making meaningful contributions to both the professional and broader community.
