Hey Everyone! 👋

I am a travel enthusiast who is dancing her way through life and exploring this beautiful world 🌎

I am a Salesforce Consultant who loves travelling, dancing, making new friends and most importantly giving back to the community. With over 7 years of Salesforce experience, I have built a career from a non-tech background with an MBA in Finance.

When I left India, I had no roadmap. All I had were dreams, courage, and an unshakeable belief that hard work would lead me somewhere meaningful. I started as an intern in Digital Marketing and Salesforce, taught myself HTML, CSS, AMPscript and Java, earned 11 Salesforce certifications, and secured roles at some of the most respected companies — including Salesforce itself.

If you have any questions on how to start your Salesforce journey or need travel tips — shoot me an email. Happy to support! ✌🏻

Starting your Salesforce journey?

I remember when I joined Salesforce — I was like unmolded clay. I was lucky to have a mentor who guided and molded me. I know the importance of a mentor who cares — that is why I help and guide new trailblazers to find their path.
