About

I come from a finance, public health (LSHTM) and research background with 11+ years of work experience in research (worked with researchers from Johns Hopkins University, World Bank Headquarters, and McGill University), program and portfolio management (managed multiple innovation portfolios on multi-disease platforms focusing on Tuberculosis worth US$ 1 million) and stakeholder engagement (World Bank, Médecins Sans Frontières and Central TB Division, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare). In the past, having worked with grassroots (Teach For India), state government (Delhi State Government) the national government (NITI Aayog) to multilateral international organizations (USAID and Stop TB Partnership hosted by UNOPS, Switzerland) has made me a strong believer in data-driven (quantitative and qualitative - mixed methods) for the context-specific decision-making process and USAID impact evaluation. I have worked with global colleagues with different backgrounds, so I am a proponent of equity and diversity.
