My journey includes pivotal roles such as Lead Privacy Counsel for a high-growth Indian tech firm with global reach, Senior Compliance Advisor for a multinational SaaS leader, and Consultant for cybersecurity initiatives in Bangalore’s innovation hub. I’ve delivered GDPR-focused training to executives and authored insights on global privacy trends, including the impact of DPDPA in India. From advising nimble startups to steering enterprises through complex data ecosystems, I blend legal rigor with business acumen to deliver results that resonate.
