My role helps shape future of cities and infrastructure. Along with my highly skilled team at CASE Construction Equipment, we oversee the tools that literally build the world around us. From skyscrapers to bridges to rural and urban roads, our machinery is behind the scenes, making it all possible. It’s like playing with giant building blocks, except each move impacts entire communities, which is deeply fulfilling  and impactful.

The Weekdays

My weekdays are a mix of strategy and action. One moment, I’m deep in planning how our equipment can drive the next big project, and the next, I’m out in the field seeing massive machinery in action. It’s a balance between boardrooms, construction sites, and problem solving.

A crucial part of my role is to reduce friction at all levels — supply side, internal, inter-functional, demand side with dealers and customers, and ensuring smooth flow of information. Then creating various opportunities for enhancing communication, engagement and developing the talent within the team.

No two days are same and that’s what keeps it exciting!

The Weekend

My weekends are all about recharging and inspiration. I’ll dive into a good book or take long nature walks or play games with my family, to clear my mind. Given my upbringing as a son of an archaeologist or my work which takes me to the remotest of places, I love exploring new places, and there’s always music playing in the background. I am a voracious reader, running a weekend reading club to share my favorite pieces. Podcasts like The Naked Scientist and The Empire keep me curious, whether I’m at home or on the go. It’s my way of balancing work with learning and adventure.

The Toys

My favorite toys are all about staying connected and enjoying life. I rely on my smartphone and smartwatch to keep things organised and in sync, whether its work or fitness. My music system is my escape, filling the room with sound when I need to unwind. And my car? That’s my freedom on four wheels, whether I’m cruising around town or heading off for a weekend adventure.

The Logos

I’m a fan of sleek and powerful brands that get the job done with minimalistic style. Apple’s clean design and intuitive tech have me hooked, whether it’s my phone or watch. Bose is my go-to for sound, bringing music and podcasts to life. And of course, CASE Construction, with its iconic eagle logo, represents strength and precision — qualities I’m proud to stand behind every day for over a decade.
