About

🌱 From Automobiles to Sustainability | Founder ProEarth - Waste Management Social Enterprise 🌍 After a successful career as a senior executive in a leading German automobile MNC, I shifted careers in a new direction to pursue a more purpose-driven path — transforming the way we deal with waste. Today, my focus is on creating sustainable solutions that promote the mantra of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Compost. I’m passionate about building circular systems, empowering communities, and turning everyday waste into valuable resources. What once were conversations about tipper trucks and low floor buses are now dialogues about composting, community action, and conscious living. Let’s connect if you believe the future is green.
