About

For me, being passionate about what I do and strive for perfection to the extent I can is important. The success of any project, proposal, presentation or pitch has been in the finer details and that 'one thing' that made a difference. Winning has been important but some of the things that did make me think more, were from the losses or the desire to 'be there'. My clients have been my biggest teachers all through over the last 21 years of professional experience in architectural firms, consulting firms and IPCs. I have been lucky to be on the drawing board as well as on ground and seen projects from all viewpoints. In my current role, I lead Design Advisory and Design Management (DADM) and Retail for the Project Management Group of CBRE in India. Having managed project deliveries effectively for more than 15 msft of a mix of diverse portfolios of corporate office interiors, retail, developments hotels, hospitals and institutional buildings, my primary focus has been to have an integrated approach towards all disciplines in project deliveries. My challenges also include working with varied project stakeholders across the spectrum to ensure that the design intent / vision is adhered to, through the project lifecycle stages and that the business objectives are met. My roles have panned through Client Relationship Management (CRM) on projects, Client Account Management (CAM), Business Development, Process re-engineering and structuring, Design Thinking and Management, Project and Program Management and a stint with Alternate Workplace Strategy (AWS) and Real Estate Advisory.
