About

At ELGI Equipments, my focus is on aligning human resources with strategic business goals across India, Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. Harnessing over nine years of cumulative HR expertise, I've honed skills in team management, Microsoft Office, and mentoring new hires, which I actively apply in my current role. Previously at airtel, my leadership as Circle HR Head was pivotal in driving HR initiatives and fostering a productive workforce in Karnataka, and before that in Tamilnadu and Kerala. My career is marked by a commitment to enhancing organizational effectiveness and designing robust HR frameworks that support and develop talent across multiple geographies.
