Thereafter I joined the Citi Center for Financial Literacy (CCFL) a unit within Indian School of Microfinance for Women and got involved in the financial literacy activities and its broader aim of spreading it in the country. I started from doing basic things like understanding the organization, work, objectives, trainings and microfinance sector as a whole.

Key Areas of Interest Includes: Financial Management, Management of SHG Federation, Women Leadership, Human resources, livelihood support systems, Efficient delivery models and channels and Business Development Services.

I am a result driven professional and keen learner.Strong interpersonal and analytical skills with an aptitude for innovative solution through need & impact assessment. To work for the emergence of a strong Training and Research Unit in the micro finance sector with synergies and linkages with formal financial and service sectors – thus enabling substantial reduction of poverty and mainstreaming of marginalized communities.

Being a fresher from a premier institute I had the orientation to contribute to bring change in society as per my skill and knowledge.
