2. What led you to choose this career path?
I studied IT and have been involved in Support work since 1998. When I was in India, IT was still a fairly new and under-explored industry. I have always enjoyed coding and playing around with IT software. Before joining IBM, I worked with a company in the aviation sector and that role exposed me to asset management, inventory, and maintenance work. Then, once I joined IBM, I decided to venture into Maximo.
3. Which part of your job do you most enjoy?
Scripting and coding. I also enjoy learning new and different ways to script and code.

BPD Zenith has granted me the flexibility and autonomy needed to achieve work-life balance. I am also grateful that both the team and the management are so supportive.
5. What are the values that drive you?
I value providing my clients with innovative and efficient solutions. I also believe that my day to day activities should be centered around activities which create positive and sustainable results for the business in the long run. Not only does this help the business grow but it is also beneficial for my professional growth and development.

Photography, travelling and gardening.
