Priya is the Lead for Gender Justice and Persons with Disabilities Clusters within The Azim Premji Philanthropy.
Priya has worked with The Philanthropy for over four years now in various capacities – Finance, Programmes, Portfolio Lead and now Cluster Lead for two of the largest clusters.
A Chartered Accountant by Profession, Priya has spent the first few years of her career at Deloitte, EY and Infosys. She has also worked as a Financial Analyst in one of the start-ups of Nadathur Holdings. She soon realised that she has more interest in development issues and spent about 10 years with the British Government in India, working on Healthcare and Life Sciences as a National Lead.
Priya holds deep empathy and connects with the vulnerable particularly with women and girls who are survivors of gender-based violence and abuse.
An avid reader of the different waves of Feminism the world has seen, student of a Masters in Gender and Women’s Studies, TEDx Speaker and traveller, Priya tries to learn Carnatic music (intermittently) in her spare time. She feels she is able to follow every dream purely because of her dedicated fitness walks, exercise and the Universal Energy – Reiki!
