PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY:

Being born in India and having grown up across India, Bahrain, Dubai and now in Toronto has allowed me to soak in cultural diversity and a first-hand appreciation of both the developed and developing economies.

In all my interactions, my focus is to add quantifiable value to the other person while maximizing my learning opportunity. I believe a two-way value driven equation ensures equitable use of time and energy. I have over 3 years of experience working in a face to face direct sales environment (experiential marketing) with Kognitive, where I have been able to generate over 750K in revenue as a result of acquiring business for its leading client.

The people I work with, when giving feedback have called out one of my strengths as possessing a passionate and persistent nature to achieve anything that I decide to go after, along with a pleasing demeanour. I am proficient in MS office and am always open to acquire knowledge, to adapt to new software and techniques, and to help the corporation turn their vision into a reality. SKILLS
