Before joining Dentsu India, she was the Regional Head at ICICI Bank as Regional Head for a period of three-and-a-half years, starting January 2008.
Prior to that, she was also associated with Indiabulls Group and Citi for more than one year each.

She also went on to add-
“I’m deeply grateful to the leadership team at Dentsu India (then and now) for fostering an environment that feels like home, instrumental in shaping my growth and journey within the network over the past nine years.
