Bio
Madhuri Vegaraju
I have worked with Shweta for over 10 years and had an opportunity to learn a lot from her. Her journey from a QA engineer to the Sr. Program manager is commendable. Her attention to key details and meticulous planning are her abilities that differentiate her from the rest. She handles many important project releases very diligently and successfully. She is not afraid to raise risk and bring awareness when project status is slipping. She is also keen to learn the required technologies and manage the projects more efficiently, than being a mere task master. she is also a fun person to work with a contagious energy and enthusiasm.
