I'm a Customer Experience Strategist and AI Solutions Deployment Leader with 16+ years building CX functions into genuine revenue engines across luxury and lifestyle e-commerce, spanning 64+ countries. I've architected AI-led transformations that turn Voice of Customer data into business intelligence, built sales capability inside service teams, and driven $30M+ in retained and upsell revenue along the way. Beyond the metrics, I believe the strongest CX leaders are built through mentorship and trust, values I've carried from mobilizing 118 young people for a youth leadership summit in Kashmir to coaching frontline teams into becoming true relationship owners. I'm now looking to bring that same hands-on, empathy-first approach to mentoring the next generation of CX professionals.
