Professional Experience:
More than 26 years of experience as a social development professional comprises 23 years in planning/ management/ implementation of research, M&E, documentation, advocacy, and capacity building, in sectors ranging from youth (employability, skill development for livelihoods), education, Gender Statistics, sex-disaggregated data, policy analysis/ advocacy, women/ adolescent empowerment, Water, Sanitation, Hygiene, to Natural Resource Management et al.
With Master's degree in Social Work from the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS-Mumbai, 1998), an Ayurvedic Medicine degree (BAMS) from the University of Mumbai for undergrad, and a Tracer Study course completed from ITC-ILO (International Training Centre of International Labour Organisation), my qualifications also include hands-on experience in statistical software like SPSS, qualitative analysis software like Atlas.ti, AI in excel, and language proficiency in English, Hindi, Gujarati, and Marathi.
Having led and managed teams that undertook M&E, impact evaluations, and other research functions in large, multi-state organizations, I am looking for a larger and more impact-full role, where the findings lead to learning utilized for strategy, program design, and funding decisions.
Currently based out of Bangalore, I have been working from a base location in Delhi NCR in the past, and am open to Delhi/ Mumbai/ other locations, with a preference for flexible, remote, and hybrid modes with extensive travel.
