About

Coffee, conversations and connections! That's what I do in my life as a recruiting professional at Headout. Handpicking the right talent for an organisation's strategic growth and connecting people with the work of their dreams is where I find my professional life's purpose. In the past, I have worked at India's largest cryptocurrency unicorn, where I covered talent acquisition, human resources, administration and communications. While my primary area of work remains recruitment, you could also find me helping create content for our social media handles. My educational background lies in the field of Psychology which has helped me build deeper and stronger connects with people, both on and off the job. Outside of my life as a recruiter, my guilty pleasures are exploring nature through walks and watching Imtiaz Ali's films.
