About

I don’t just manage complex operations—I make them future-proof.

With 27+ years leading transformations in power, ports, and infrastructure, I’m known for turning untested ideas into first-cycle successes in unfamiliar terrains. Whether it’s running a 4620 MW power plant, designing VR-based port simulators, or reengineering workflows for thousands of employees, my approach blends:

Speed with structure – Delivering visible results without sacrificing quality or safety
Innovation with compliance – Ensuring every breakthrough is sustainable and audit-ready
Vision with shopfloor reality – Aligning top management’s strategic goals with operational execution

Key Impact Themes:

End-to-End Leadership: From concept design, budgeting, and tendering to execution and capability building for large workforces.
Pioneering Learning Solutions: Led creation of immersive VR training, operational simulators, and enterprise-wide e-learning platforms.
Operational Excellence: Streamlined O&M for plants from 27 MW to 4620 MW, cutting downtime and costs while elevating safety and reliability.
Transformational Change: Engineered systems and skills overhauls that delivered multi-layered ROI—operational, financial, and cultural.

I thrive where the stakes are high and the landscape is new—bridging technical mastery with people-centric leadership to deliver outcomes that stand the test of time.

Credentials: PGCGM (IIM Kozhikode) | BE-Electrical (LD College of Engineering)
Current Role: Associate General Manager, Adani Group

If you’re building something ambitious and can’t afford second attempts, that’s where I come in.
