About

I work at the intersection of Talent, People Strategy, and Business Growth. Over the last 14+ years, my career has evolved alongside the HR function itself — from early-stage manual recruitment and HR operations to data-driven, AI-enabled workforce and people decision-making. I currently lead Global Talent Acquisition and People Strategy, partnering closely with CXOs and business leaders on leadership hiring, workforce planning, organization design, and change initiatives. My work focuses on building scalable capability, improving hiring quality, reducing friction through automation, and aligning people strategy with business outcomes. I’ve built and scaled teams across Manufacturing, Oil & Gas, Healthcare, Retail, FinTech, BFSI, and Global Capability Centers, spanning India, Middle East, USA, UK, and Europe. I’m particularly interested in how AI, talent intelligence, and analytics can reduce subjectivity in people decisions and help organizations plan more predictably for the future. Always open to meaningful conversations around people leadership, workforce strategy, and building future-ready organizations.
