Summary of Experience

After completing my Masters in Development Planning and an M.Phil in Education ( Interdisciplinary) , I decided to work at the grass root and worked with an NGO for seven years and joined Forbes Marshall Corporate Social Initiatives in 2001. Currently I am heading the Corporate Social Responsibility Team at Forbes Marshall. With professional experience in the Development sector of 31+ years, my strengths are developing innovative, replicable, highly impactful initiatives and project planning and management .Through the years , I have gained insight and experience specifically in the domains of education, women empowerment , skill training ,livelihood enhancement and community development.

I am thankful to CSIM, Hyderabad for introducing me to the concept of Social Audit . Further CSIM , Chennai strengthened this understanding by offering a wonderfully designed year long program which groomed me as a Social Auditor. Attending Master Classes by Alan Kay was a privilege and having a cohort of highly motivated colleagues like Marie Banu , Latha Suresh and Vatsala Ravikrishnan made the journey of becoming a Social Auditor very enriching.

Since 2022, I have the privilege of being a Resource Person of National Institute of Securities and Markets (NISM). I was involved in the course work for the "Social Auditors" Certification Course viz. NISM Series XXIII: Social Auditors Certification Examination for Social Auditors launched on January 20, 2022. It is a mandatory requirement to be qualified as a Social Auditor under the Social Stock Exchange (SSE) in India. Likewise, I have conducted webinar to promote the understanding and concept of Social Auditors under the SSE. The Development sector in India is very vibrant today. Social Auditors can engage with a plethora of actors to strengthen this vision and make the Development journey more meaningful!
