About Me

Know me, Meet me

Passionate, optimistic, fun loving, simple, persistent, enthusiastic, achiever, forever learner, meticulous, dependable, family man, and approachable are certainly the characteristics my friends and colleagues will agree. Well, I am more than that, much more and seasoned! When I am not playing with the data or making decisions or supporting the management at work, I am improving my cooking skills, watching Netflix or YouTube for interesting stuff. Following geeks and their inventions online. I can be good company for social activities, or motivational chat which takes us back on memory lanes; the experience talks!

Me Professionally...

Logically minded, creative visualizer of practical solutions. love to dig into detail, data, and trends to evaluate improvement opportunities (includes digging into discrepancies and problems to ensure those are addressed before they accumulate and cause loss to the business). A firm believer of getting basics right on almost everything, while also believing few exceptions are part and parcel of every business. A natural troubleshooter with great understanding on the process in both the industries I’ve worked to date. To accomplish this, I focus on using the available technology with detailed observations of people, processes and transactions. Creating, scaling, and optimizing the existing process to minimize the discrepancies to deliver the best results possible are the positives delivered over the period, which has made me grow within the organization, especially the present one where I am assisting the top management with broader view of the risks to be managed and, constantly assisting with development strategies. The journey which got me here is because of few of the following aspects:

  • My thought process is always centered and balanced around customer service and my organization’s profitability.
  • I love to win (oh, don’t we all?). I would gladly accept and learn when the other party is right. On rare occasions, I do give up when there are other priorities to be dealt with.
  • I love excelling in execution of big ideas, projects within the given support and constraints.
  • I relate and narrate well to make others understand and get involved with interest.
  • I trust my instinct strongly; however, I back that instinct with data for the decisions I support or make.
  • I constantly learn because I always want to move ahead. I stay calm and focus on quality decisions.
