About
20+ years of experience, including more than 10 years working directly with CEOs and senior leadership teams across banking, insurance, technology and global operations. I have often worked as the person behind the scenes helping leadership get things done – from preparing for board and leadership meetings, managing budgets and agencies, handling CEO office projects, measurements, KPIs, suppliers and cross-functional priorities, to bringing together information from business, technology, finance, risk and operations teams. Over the years, I have been given opportunities to work across different aspects of the business, including setting up functions, launching new offices and capabilities, supporting business integration, managing change and helping leadership navigate periods of growth, crisis and uncertainty. My experience includes working directly with leadership and headquarters teams across the US, UK, France and APAC, while supporting India operations and business priorities.
