I have built what I advise on: two factories, a modular brand and fifteen years of interior projects.

Since 2011 I have led corporate, commercial and hospitality fit-outs at Finesse Interio, and set up SHRUM's production in Greater Noida and Baddi. My advice comes from the factory floor and the project site, so it is practical, costed and ready to implement.
