Head of Talent, APAC

## About

“The secret of my success is that we have gone to exceptional lengths to hire the best talent in the world\.” — Steve Jobs I began my startup journey during Flipkart’s formative years as part of the founding HR team and spent 14 years helping shape the talent engine through the company’s evolution from an early\-stage startup to one of India’s most transformative companies\. Over the years, I partnered closely with founders, CXOs, and business leaders across multiple phases of scale spanning organization building, leadership hiring, business incubation, and talent transformation\. Many of the leaders I worked alongside later went on to build successful startups and unicorns that further shaped India’s startup ecosystem\. Most recently, I joined Quince as Head of Talent – APAC, where I’ve been helping strengthen the organization during a phase of rapid global growth by enhancing talent quality, strengthening leadership pipelines, and driving more structured and scalable hiring practices\. Across my career, I’ve focused on building high\-performing teams and scalable organizations aligned closely with business outcomes\. My experience spans leadership hiring, workforce planning, employer branding, diversity initiatives, and AI\-enabled hiring transformation\. I believe that purpose and values shape both people and organizations, and I’m deeply passionate about creating environments where strong talent, thoughtful leadership, and long\-term thinking can thrive\. Outside of work, I enjoy reading and listening to podcasts, particularly biographies, founder journeys, and spiritual content\.
