With 15+ years in facilities management, workplace operations, and hospitality services, I’m passionate about creating environments that do more than function—they inspire, engage, and empower people every day. Currently, I serve as Senior Manager – Facilities & Asset Management at Knight Frank India, where I lead operations across a major IT park, driving service excellence across hard services, soft services, food services, security, transport, sustainability, and audit compliance. My journey: from starting as a 3rd Cook on a cruise liner to managing multi-million sq. ft. corporate campuses: has been shaped by hands-on experience, resilience, and a people-first mindset. I specialize in: End-to-end project execution & HOTO Soft services & hospitality operations Transport & fleet management Vendor & stakeholder coordination Sustainability and energy efficiency in buildings Food services & employee experience enhancement Compliance, safety, and risk mitigation Cross-functional collaboration with real estate, HR & admin teams I believe the workplace isn’t just a location—it’s a strategic asset. Done right, it becomes a space where people thrive, innovation grows, and culture scales. Let’s build environments that reflect purpose and bring out the best in people
