Fifteen years ago, I left a small town in India following my passion for technology to carve my own path in the field. As a Gold Medallist in Computer Science with no family in tech, I built my career entirely from scratch — growing from Java developer to Engineering Manager and strategy leader. Recognised as a Tech Women 100 winner in 2025, what drives me most is not just what I built for myself but what I help others build. Through mentoring engineers and championing women in technology, I work to create real opportunities and show people what becomes possible when someone believes in them.
