Senior Lecturer

CAREER SUMMARY

My career journey has been marked by a blend of academic roles and industry experience, providing me with a comprehensive understanding of both sectors. Beginning as a Program Coordinator at Tuter project Academy Nawala, I transitioned to teaching positions at the Faculty of Business in the Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology (SLIIT), gradually progressing from an Instructor to an Assistant Lecturer, and ultimately to a Lecturer. Concurrently, my role as an International Relationship Executive at Senka Aero International has broadened my perspective on global business practices and relationship management. These diverse experiences have equipped me with a holistic view of education and industry, enabling me to navigate effectively between the two realms while fostering growth and collaboration.
