My Tech Stack

Recognition

• PwC PMO Impact Award (2025) • PwC Rising Maverick Award (2024) • Cyient Most Valuable Team Award, Honeywell Partner Award, and other team/mentorship honors.

But the recognition I value most is quieter – a junior analyst I mentored moving into a lead role, an idea I brought to leadership that helped grow the business, or a process I built still running years later. Through passionate communication that drove adoption, and the right questions asked at the right moments to steer engineering decisions, I developed a digital-first mindset within the leadership I worked with – because in the end, technology is rarely the hard part. People are.

📩 Let’s connect and collaborate on how I can bring my AI Product Management expertise, Project & Program Management background, Change Adoption experience, People Management skills, and innovative mindset to help your organisation achieve its portfolio, product, and program goals.
