“Life comes a full circle! In 2002 at my first job at ICICI Bank I was part of the team that contributed to the creation of ICICI OneSource, the first Indian bank-led large scale BPO, which over the years evolved into Firstsource.

This makes it all the more exciting and meaningful for me to join Firstsource as Global General Counsel, working with colleagues around the world, to build a tech first organization with a heart!”
