## About

I lead data and analytics functions — strategy, platform, team, and delivery\. Across 17 years at PayPal, HSBC, IBM, Capgemini, and Bank of America, I have built cloud data platforms, directed large\-scale migrations, led multi\-disciplinary analytics teams, and turned fragmented, unreliable data environments into trusted, self\-serve analytics capabilities that businesses actually use\. My strongest areas are data strategy and governance, cloud platform build on GCP and BigQuery, BI and reporting at scale using Tableau and Qlik, and building analytics teams that deliver consistently\. I am currently based in Bengaluru and open to Director and Senior Manager roles in Data Analytics, BI, and Data Engineering leadership — particularly in organisations that are serious about making data a real business capability\. Feel free to connect or reach out directly\.
