Her strengths include delivering large and complex projects in a fast paced environment, as well as the ability to manage multiple initiatives across business units and geographies. Ashu has spent her career shaping business strategy, defining and delivering products at scale, creating efficient processes, optimizing team productivity and maximizing the strengths of the engineering groups. She is comfortable working with everyone from engineers to executives to external customers. Ashu started her career as a beta program manager managing the prerelease programs for multi-million dollar products like Acrobat and Flash Player.

She also got an Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) certification in Acrobat and Lightroom to contribute more fully to programs she was handling. Since 2010, she has been working as a Sr. Program Manager for Acrobat and Reader Desktop group. She started as a program manager for dot releases and personally drove the efforts to reduce the turnaround time for security releases.
