Affectionately known as Suri Paajiin the world of sports, I am a distinguished figure whose passion for running has flourished into a successful career within the sports industry. Since 2013, I have played an integral role in this field, making a lasting impact through my dedication to running and organizing events.

~Running Career

Over the course of 15 years, I've achieved an impressive record, having completed more than 50 running races covering a range of distances, from half marathons (21.1Km) to Ultra Marathons (100Km). My journey as a runner has led me across India and beyond, including notable participation in the esteemed 100Km international running competition in Hong Kong back in 2017.

Drawing from a robust background in the sports industry, I've garnered extensive experience working with the market leader, IndiaRunning.Com, where I served as the Director of Business Development. There, I spearheaded market penetration, website positioning, user engagement, and reputation management through strategic utilization of social channels.

In addition to my achievements as a runner, I've established a distinct role for myself as a race director, route architect, and course measurer in numerous national and international races. My impact spans over 100+ races in the past decade, where I've held pivotal positions, showcasing expertise as a technical official, technical director, and advisor for various distance-running events.

I am proud to be an AIMS/World Athletics B Grade Measurer, officially certified to measure marathon routes for World Athletics certification.

My experience lies mainly in the fields of events, product design & consumer behavior. Having also personally delved into the fields of marketing, training, and learning & development gives me an added edge when it comes to understanding people and dealing with them in various situations.

I like to keep things simple and believe in arriving at resolutions rather than focusing on problems. I love to contribute in a positive way and take pride in helping others achieve their goals, as I firmly believe that's the best way to achieve my own goals.
