## About

\~ I help organisations turn data and AI into things people actually use, not just pilots that look good in a demo\. \~ I'm a Manager in the AI & Data Solutions team at Sony India Software Centre, with 16 years in IT across quality, delivery, analytics and AI\. My work sits between business and technology: \~ Over the last six years that has meant building analytics and GenAI solutions, setting up AI use\-case governance, and bringing low\-code tools like Power Platform and Power BI into everyday work\. One solution alone saved around 350 hours of manual effort, and that's the kind of result I go after\. \~ What drives me is the practical side of AI: picking the right problems, using it responsibly, and making sure it holds up after launch\. My PGDBA in AI/ML \(Great Lakes & UT Austin\) and ISO 27001 Lead Auditor background shape how I think about both value and risk\. \~ Before Sony, I built my foundation in quality and delivery at PwC, Capgemini, Marlabs and Wipro\. Specialties: \- Generative AI \(applied\) and AI governance \- Low\-Code Application Delivery \(Microsoft Power Platform\) \- Data Analysis & Visualization \(Power BI, Tableau, Python\) \- Statistical Thinking \(Minitab, ANOVA, Time Series Modeling\) \- CMMI High Maturity Practices \(QPM, OPP, CAR, OPM\) \- Six Sigma Projects & Process Excellence \- Agile Project & Quality Management
