About

My career began as a Squadron Leader in the Indian Air Force where I learned the importance of protecting high-value assets while ensuring teams operate at their best. This foundation has been invaluable as I transitioned into my current role at Delhivery. One of my proudest achievements, Diffusing a live Bomb & designed security measures that reduced operational risks by an impressive 50% while simultaneously improving efficiency by 25% year-over-year. Managing complex engagements across multiple operational hubs ranging from 38K sq ft to 2 lakh sq ft has taught me how to navigate challenges while exceeding performance targets . I have had the privilege of mentoring over 1300+ personnel during my time with the Indian Air Force through customized training programs focused on compliance training and real-world threat scenarios. Outside of work, I’m passionate about sharing knowledge, whether it’s through informal mentorship or participating in community initiatives related to defense education. I believe that learning is a lifelong journey, and I'm always eager to connect with others who share this mindset.
