About

MBA graduate with hands-on experience as an Associate Project Manager, working across product execution, operations, and quality-driven environments. Strong in problem-solving, structured thinking, and cross-functional coordination, with experience tracking execution using Agile tools, improving workflow visibility, and supporting pilot production and delivery readiness.
