Expanding human potential through mindfulness
to navigate the paradox of life.
Enrichment of the self, fulfilment in relationships and harmony with the larger context as a whole
Team Llama
Founder & CEO
For many years now, I have been very proud of the culture at the organisations I’ve had the pleasure of being a part of. Whether it was my startups or world class companies like IDEO or SIY, time and again I’ve seen that when you set up a place with a great culture (not easy!), the rest follows.
Success for me therefore has been about doing what you love, doing it really well, being happy doing it AND getting paid for it! And my dream for Llama is to have people find that success here.
I may be the Founder of Llama, but I actually see myself more as a gardener, tending to the pasture of the Llamas. It is my intent that my Llama team functions less as an organisation and more as an organism.
This means, we take care of each other. We support each other in success and importantly, in ‘failure’ too. Because after all, at Llama, we are in the business of creating better human ‘beings’. Not just human ‘doings’.
Any business is ultimately about its people and I help organisations build people-centered cultures.
As a founding team member at Llama, I enjoy working with our global clientele in the areas of Emotional Intelligence, Leadership, High performance and Wellbeing. And all this, using Mindfulness at the heart of it all.
In my earlier roles as a consultant, I worked primarily in the areas of People and Thinking. As a long time Design Thinking practitioner, I’ve always looked to human behaviour and needs for insights to drive strategy and innovation. In the last 20 years, I have helped organisations across industries to solve people problems using best practices like Design Thinking, Lean Startup and Agile.
I now combine my experience in consulting, workshop facilitation, corporate training and coaching to engage with clients and help them discover and achieve the highest potential of their people.
I have lived and worked in India, Italy, Singapore, Hong Kong and Dubai, where I’m currently based.
As someone deeply passionate about helping others, my journey began in the hospitality sector, where I spent over a decade working with global brands like Oberoi Hotels, Hilton, and Accor.
However, a personal journey into mental health led me to make some transformative choices. This shift brought me into the realm of wellbeing, a field where I could blend my hospitality expertise with a deep commitment to holistic employee support.
I firmly believe that my transition into the wellbeing sphere gives me a unique perspective, allowing me to bridge the gap between exceptional service and comprehensive workplace wellness. At team Llama, I’m thrilled to contribute to redefining wellbeing in the workplace, ensuring that employees feel supported and valued.
I am also a certified Holistic Sound Healer, specialising in the use of Tibetan Singing Bowls for both individual and group sessions.
Outside of work, you might find me playing tennis, immersed in a gaming session on the PlayStation, or spending quality time with Nila, my beloved Indie dog. There’s nothing like the joy of being with family and friends to keep my spirits high!
