An academic having prior industry exposure across various industries as well as most geographical territories of India, my passion lies in sharing my knowledge gained over the years in different roles with my students. My value add as a resource person is the real life scenario that I bring to the class room which complements the theoretical aspects, thus strengthening the conceptual grounding of my students. My interaction with students are not restricted to the classroom but goes beyond to counselling them during internship as well as during initial phase of their job, sometimes even after they have been in employment for few years and are planning to undertake a significant shift in their career.
