Currently, I head the communications portfolio at Cipla Foundation, a leading corporate social responsibility arm of Cipla, a global pharmaceutical company. My mission is to drive impactful communications for social good, aligning with the foundation\'s vision of access, affordability, and quality in healthcare. Previously, I led the brand partnerships, marketing communications, social media, and beyond the meals divisions at The Akshaya Patra Foundation, a non-profit organization that provides mid-day meals to school children.

I am passionate about using my skills and expertise to make a positive difference in the lives of others.
