Professional Experience: |
|
I spent over five years working in Corporate America trying to impact organization-wide change with technology, processes and people. Applying these efforts to Indian low-income communities and specifically with education was my main reason to move on from KPMG, USA where it was all about operations, process and technology strategy for large-scale organizations in the energy, financial, real-estate, telecom industries. Once back in India, I joined a Not-For-Profit Just For Kicks and helped build and deliver a life-skills program through football, and then Enabling Leadership leading operations strategy, program design and running the training program for coaches. Now I work as an independent consultant in the development sector with a portfolio ranging across education, WASH, mentoring youth and community empowerment, and assistive-technology.
