About Me
I am a Logistics and Supply Chain professional with over 15 years of experience managing end-to-end logistics, EXIM, customs clearance, warehousing, transportation and supply chain operations across complex industrial environments.
My professional journey has included leadership roles at Indorama Eleme Fertilizer & Chemicals Limited, Lanco Infratech Limited, and Jindal Steel & Power Limited, where I have worked across logistics operations, material management, international sourcing, customs compliance, project cargo and supply chain optimization.
My strength lies in combining operational execution with commercial awareness, stakeholder management and continuous process improvement. I have worked closely with shipping lines, terminals, clearing agents, banks, suppliers, customers and customs authorities to ensure the timely and cost-effective movement of materials.
I hold an MBA in Supply Chain and Management and a Bachelor of Commerce, with additional exposure to ERP systems, financial accounting and logistics-related systems.
