About

17 years. 3 distinct industries. 1 core belief: Scaling a business shouldn’t mean losing its soul. I spent nearly two decades in the corporate engine, building HR functions from the ground up in everything from traditional manufacturing to fast-paced EdTech and BFSI. Most recently, as the Chief People & Culture Officer at Kuhoo Finance, I sat in the leadership think tank, acting as the organization’s "conscience keeper." My role was to ensure that as we scaled at speed, our integrity and core values remained non-negotiable. But I have also learned that "work" needs to feel more human. I don’t believe in rigid policies - I believe in People Products. I bring a product mindset to HR, using agile methodologies, game-based learning, and workplace personality analytics to turn complex cultural friction into simple, joyful, and actionable solutions. After 17 years of high-stakes corporate life, I took a deliberate pause to recalibrate. Today, I am selectively partnering with founders and leadership teams as a Fractional Strategist, Executive Coach, and Mentor. My mission? To help you build and scale a culture where business agility meets human fulfillment, and where innovation is fueled by a sense of purpose.
