Manager Power Portfolios
​PSEG Long Island - Power System Management

My idol was, is and will always be my Dad, who supported me and made me what I am today. Place where I was born women going into Engineering and that also back in early 1990’s was not that common. I broke the norms and joined NED University of Engineering and Technology, where I was the only female student in the class. My first job was with an oil and gas firm, at that time I recall being the first girl ever assigned at the remote oil and gas facilities to assist in commissioning of major projects. Currently working as a Manager Power Portfolios managing the entire portfolio of Generation resources that are interconnected to Long Island Power Authority’s T&D System. My group administers both technical and commercial contracts. My group solely manages the Renewable and Non Renewable Generation Resources that are interconnected to our T&D system. Right from the time when Interconnection Applications comes to us through NYISO (Transmission) or through our tariff based process, we work with the Developers and follow cradle to grave approach, where we study, Design, Engineer, Construct, Commission, in short interact with the Generator Owners from Day 1 till the time they retire or Decommission. I am the member of ITWG and IPWG forums of DPS. My accomplishments also include working with Power Plants day and night to ensure generating resources are available during the Summer Peak season and at all times when our System and customer needs them. ​
