Summary

I am a people person . I really enjoy working with a wide variety of people to achieve a common goal efficiently and realistically. For the last five years, I managed a team of seventeen plus people including a Senior Manager with minimal attrition. My hiring and management style has always been on the principle that you hire smart people so that you don’t tell them what to do but they will.

I am curious , always foolish to learn and I value positive attitude more than any certification in the world . Consistency , reliability and respect is what I strive for in my job and also look for that in an organization.
