About

🇬🇧 I’m currently pursuing my MBA at the University of Potsdam, bringing over 6 years of experience in recruitment, HR strategy, and client management. I’ve worked closely with startup founders and leadership teams to scale hiring operations and build strong, value-driven teams. My approach combines people understanding with data and business insight — the intersection where growth truly happens. Now based in Berlin, I’m seeking opportunities to contribute through part-time roles or collaborations in HR, talent, consulting, or operations. Always open to connecting with professionals, founders, and teams creating something meaningful. Let’s talk! 🤝 🇩🇪 Momentan absolviere ich mein MBA-Studium an der Universität Potsdam und bringe über 6 Jahre Erfahrung in den Bereichen Recruiting, HR-Strategie und Kundenmanagement mit. In meiner bisherigen Laufbahn habe ich eng mit Gründern und Führungsteams zusammengearbeitet, um schnell wachsende Startups beim Aufbau leistungsstarker Teams zu unterstützen. Besonders wichtig ist mir dabei die Verbindung von Menschen, Daten und Geschäftszielen – denn genau dort entsteht nachhaltiges Wachstum. Jetzt in Berlin freue ich mich darauf, meine Erfahrung in Teilzeitrollen oder Projekten einzubringen – ob im Bereich HR, Talent Acquisition, Consulting oder Operations. Ich bin offen für neue Kontakte, Kooperationen und Möglichkeiten, gemeinsam etwas aufzubauen. 🤝

Psychology Research Assistant

Apr 2018 – May 2019 · 1 yr 1 mo · Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

  • Research Topic: Psycholexical Personality Assessment based on Indian Culture & Diversity.
  • The most recent and widely accepted Big Five Personality models have been developed and applied in many cultures. Typically, Indian researchers are recipients of the theories and instruments based on them. Among the two broad traditions, Psycholexical and Psychometrics, the former has been used in all European cultures. Unfortunately, there has been little work carried out in India despite the cultural and linguistic diversity. The research collaboration proposed to use the Psycholexical paradigm to bridge in this gap. Given the fact that it was a bottom up approach, it could have lead to a completely new understanding of personality with respect to culture.
