How long have you worked at Fremont Bank, and what’s your role? 

I’ve been with Fremont Bank for about a year and a half. I currently work in the Enterprise Portfolio Project Management Office within the Digital, Technology, and Security organization, where I manage both IT and business projects and programs.

What do you enjoy most about your job?

I enjoy partnering with teams across the organization and helping them plan and execute initiatives that support their goals. Using my project management experience to bring structure and alignment to cross‑functional efforts is especially rewarding.

What’s your greatest strength as a business professional?

My biggest strength is really teamwork. I always start by looking at what the organization is trying to achieve, then shape my projects around those goals. I’m big on open collaboration and keeping stakeholders aligned so everything moves smoothly and ends well.

What are you currently watching, reading, or listening to, and what do you like about it?

I just finished watching the Prime Video series Sandeep Bhaiya, a Hindi show about a man who doesn’t pass the government administrative exams but ends up inspiring a student who later becomes a top foreign diplomat. Now I’m on season two of The Hunting Party on Netflix. On the reading side, I’m going through Charting and Technical Analysis by Fred McAllen to deepen my understanding of technical analysis for stocks and options.

What’s your favorite decade and why?

My favorite decade has to be the ‘90s. That’s when I was finishing high school and starting college, and it felt like a time full of freedom, big dreams, and my own opinions taking shape. I honestly could think in my own way, and I could dream whatever I wished to dream.
