WHO AM I?
I'm an experienced development expert with a passion for impact and sustainability. Trust me, making an impact isn't just necessary - it's also tons of fun! I've led numerous national and international consulting projects in diverse sectors like impact investment, health, agriculture, energy, and skill development. The secret? It's all about the approach.
As an established social scientist, I've delved deep into the realms of financial inclusion, women empowerment, sustainability, agriculture, and labor majorly in South Asia. With over half a decade of experience, I've conducted cutting-edge research studies that unravel the complexities of these domains. Armed with advanced statistical tools and methods, I decipher patterns, unveil insights, and pave the way for transformative change.
My innovative, global, and cost-effective methods for impact evaluation and SROI analysis have helped organizations achieve meaningful results while saving costs and improving processes. I'm well-versed in global impact and sustainability reporting standards and can assure you that sustainability isn't just a buzzword - it's a must-have. With my expertise in developing monitoring and evaluation systems, I've helped organizations make strategic decisions to maximize their impact.
I also have a knack for data visualization and storytelling, which I believe is the key to making an impact. And while I'm highly skilled in technical aspects like ESG assessment and game theory, I'm equally adept at engaging with stakeholders, designing programs, and managing projects.
Let me be your impact whisperer - together, we'll communicate your organization's social and environmental impact in a clear, concise, and compelling way.

My Experience
My journey has been a phenomenal learning experience for me. Institutions, people and places representing diverse areas of development have enhanced my senses and introduced them to unusual and less travelled route of learning. I have worked with local, national and international organisations and have participated in various fellowships and programmes. I have developed three core areas during my journey i.e. design, research and programme management and development.

HOW?
My quest to develop a versatile personality in the development sector enabled me to garner a diverse experience. The grind of becoming a truly impactful development professional has helped me in empowering institutions to absorb my skilled experience for various projects and programmes. The section entails a set of many activities I have engaged in as a consultant, researcher, manager and practitioner.
With my expertise in data analysis and monitoring and evaluation, I help organizations establish cost-effective and relevant monitoring and evaluation systems. I utilize lean data approaches, theory of change methodologies, and data dashboard management techniques to streamline the process. I also assist in developing performance indicators and measurement tools, which enable organizations to track their progress and make data-driven decisions.
Monitoring, Learning and Evaluation
I don't just conduct impact evaluation and advanced impact studies, I design tools and methodologies that aid in effective impact monitoring and management. From data collection to analysis, report writing to process documentation, I ensure that organisations have the right assessment tools for their programmes.
Impact Evaluation
Sustainable development goals are essential for a better future, and I help organisations design and implement programmes that achieve them. Through capacity building, branding, communications, monitoring & evaluation, and organisational development, I ensure that organisations are equipped with the right tools and frameworks for programme replication.
Programme Development and Management
Social intelligence analysis is crucial for positive and sustainable impact, and I help organisations conduct it through tools like game theory. I assist in forming multiple simulations of various policies on the end beneficiaries, so organisations can influence networks effectively.

Establishing an MIS that is lean, adaptable and relevant to the data analysis needs is essential for data-driven decision-making. I design resilient and adaptable information systems that are optimised for both short-term and long-term needs of the organisation, following a lean data approach.
MIS Development and Management
Any organisation or idea is as good as the system it follows. Hence, it is important to design a system that not only helps an institution achieve its objectives but also incorporates the needs and interest of all the stakeholders affected by the same. I help organisations design and implement inclusive systems for optimizing performance and lean culture in the space.
System Design Management
I may not be the best, but I do my best to conduct the right research for organisations that enables them to empower a body of knowledge. With my diverse experience in sociology, management, design and public policy, I focus on research areas that revolve around open societies, game theory, rural and slum communities, rural development, public policy, climate change and geopolitics.

What IMPACT
Professionally, I have always focused on the 'how; and 'what' of doing things. However, the purpose of my life is not defined by what and how. It is defined on the basis of who I do it for. I understand the fact that I am mortal but not the impact I create. I firmly believe in creating impact that will continue to change lives irrespective of my presence. Hence, I always thrive to leave my impact imprints on communities and people from a sustainability point of view.
