WORK HISTORY
Senior Program Officer @Centre For Aquatic Livelihood Jaljeevika
Pune, IN
Scaled blue-economy livelihoods across states, aligning projects to Jaljeevika’s 2025–2035 strategy to build women-led enterprises and wetland economies; streamlined M&E and partner reporting so each project showed clear income, water-use, and biodiversity outcomes.Standardized advisory SOPs (pond water quality, FCR, survival) by packaging the org’s AquaECO/IoT toolkits into field-ready checklists and WhatsApp nudges, cutting troubleshooting time for CRPs and improving cohort survival rates.Built a pipeline for CSR–government co-finance (PMMSY/NRLM + CSR), mapping funders to project components (training, inputs, sensors, cages) to accelerate replication of proven models.
