About

Senior SDE @ Amazon | Career Coach for Women in Tech | Building impactful systems & empowering careers through clarity, confidence & community. Let’s connect if you care about growth — in tech and as a human. What if success in tech wasn’t just about what you build — but also about who you help rise along the way? I help women in tech crack interviews and grow within their companies through structured coaching, clear communication, and confidence-building strategies — while continuing to build systems at Amazon that simplify complexity and create meaningful impact. Over the past 9+ years as a Senior SDE at Amazon, I’ve worked across diverse domains — from Arabic localization and in-app coaching for FC Associates during COVID, to ML-driven defect identification verified by human inspection, and enabling global returns in cross-border e-commerce. Across all of these, one belief anchors me: Great technology empowers. And so does great leadership. Whether I’m designing tools or guiding people, I care deeply about making things work — and making people feel seen and supported while doing it. That’s why I’ve also mentored 100+ women in tech to navigate interviews, build confidence, and grow careers that align with who they are — not just what the industry expects. Let’s connect if: - You’re a woman in tech preparing for interviews or seeking direction - You care about building tech that solves real problems for real people - You believe growth can be both bold and kind Outside work, I enjoy reading, cooking, gardening, long walks, and hanging out with my family — along with following cricket, pursuing spirituality, exploring mandala art, and learning different dance forms.
