Legal Associate | Contract Lifecycle Management | Commercial & Technology Agreements

About

Contracts and commercial law professional with hands-on experience managing end-to-end contract lifecycles for IT, SaaS, and vendor service agreements. At Biocon, I handle drafting, redlining, negotiation, execution, and renewals across 50+ commercial agreements while advising business teams on risk positions to keep deals moving. My earlier litigation and research background gives me a sharper eye for enforceability risks and dispute-proofing something most pure-play contracts professionals miss. Currently focused on deepening expertise in technology agreements, compliance-driven contract standardization, and scalable CLM processes.
