Hi there,

Thanks a ton for stopping by and taking a moment to know me. I truly value your time and interest! Whether you landed here out of curiosity, collaboration, or just a caffeine-fueled scroll, I hope this little bio gives you a glimpse of who I am and what I love doing.

I'm a Technology Strategic Sourcing Manager at Warner Bros. Discovery, with 13+ years of experience across Consulting, Healthcare, and Media & Entertainment figuring out how global enterprises buy technology smarter, faster, and with fewer headaches.

My world revolves around SaaS, Cloud, AI/ML, GenAI, and Customer Data Platforms the categories that are reshaping how modern businesses operate. On any given day, I'm running RFIs for emerging-tech vendors, negotiating multi-million-dollar commercial agreements (MSAs, SOWs, Order Forms, Renewals — the whole alphabet), and partnering closely with Legal, Privacy, InfoSec, and Finance to land deals that balance ambition with compliance.

A few things I'm proud of:

Closed 60+ commercial agreements in the last year across SaaS, AI, and data categories

Designed an AI-Enabled RFx framework using Copilot, Cowork, Claude, and ChatGPT cutting sourcing cycle time by 30%

Led 10 parallel PoC and Evaluation initiatives for emerging AI/ML and GenAI vendors

Spent 9 years at TCS scaling from individual contributor to people manager which taught me that great sourcing is really about great relationships

I'm a genuine power user of agentic and generative AI in procurement I believe the next wave of sourcing leaders will be the ones who can pair commercial instinct with AI fluency, and I love experimenting at that intersection.

Outside of contracts and category strategy, you'll find me:

Chasing the perfect cup of coffee ☕ (I maintain that no contract has ever been redlined successfully without it)

Reading about where AI is heading next

Convinced my caffeine intake is "completely under control" (it isn't, and that's fine)

Open to connecting with fellow sourcing and procurement professionals, technology and AI leaders, and anyone who shares my belief that good business like good coffee comes down to getting the details right.

Thank you.
