Two things I love: Learning people’s stories and helping jobseekers. Here's how I do that: 

Professionally, I get to hire the world’s best AI/ML Staff Engineers at Google. If that's you, let's talk! 

Personally, I love helping my friends and connections get amazing jobs. If that's you, let's talk! 

More things I love: the San Francisco Giants, optimistic people, Settlers of Catan, the Enneagram, chunky babies, Lord of the Rings, and breakfast burritos.

I am tireless when I am passionate. I am a curious fast learner and a discoverer. I take my work seriously, but I do have a good sense of humor. I am an extrovert and an articulate communicator with all levels of people.  According to my allies and teammates, leadership, creative thinking, and being balanced are some of my strongest qualities. I am a multi-tasker and a responsible and reliable team player. I am extremely driven with a clear goal to succeed and I love experimenting data. My attitude is built on logical thinking but I often think outside the box.

As a team leader, I often try to make the workplace an enjoyable space for everyone and I believe the quality over quantity concept is best for lasting success.  Here are some of the best lessons I learned through my career so far.

◾No fuel can drive you forward faster than your thirst for new knowledge.
◾A good leader is never a boss.
◾Growing is meaningful only when you improve together.
◾You never know the limit of your capabilities if you are not up for challenges.
◾Listening can never hurt you, though it may stir up your ego.

I speak Sinhalese, English, Japanese and Korean and my next language goals are Spanish and Chinese. I landed on a treasure trove when I was offered a job at JICA even before graduating from college where I met one of my favorite mentors who told me, "Learning a language is only knowing a medium of communication, so learn a career skill together, it will make you a great asset." Those words were an eye-opener for my career success path.

I do a lot of volunteer work not for the resume but for life satisfaction. I love reading and creative writing but I am not a boring geek. I watch a lot of movies and often listen to music in different languages but ballads and R&B are my favorite genres regardless of the language. I am an easy-going personality who is always ready & confident in doing my absolute best.
