About me

Hey hey, I'm Ramya - Entrepreneur, Project Director & Writer of The Pivotpreneurs. When my role got eliminated at LinkedIn, I chose upskilling over overthinking- and cracked the PMP exam in just 3 weeks. Now, I love helping others do the same. Teaching and sharing what I’ve learned is my happy place, especially when it comes to project management, clear communication, and building smart systems. I have 13 years of experience managing global projects at companies like Goldman Sachs, LinkedIn and Lighthouse Canton. I’ve worked with senior leaders, handled tricky timelines, and made sense of chaotic data, dashboards, and teams. I’ve also spent a lot of time making presentations and presenting to diverse audiences - from leadership teams and clients to creatives and engineers. I love turning complex ideas into clear, engaging stories. Now, I run Yarala.Biz, my own design and strategy studio. I help founders, freelancers, and creatives set up clear systems, manage clients better, and build great presentations and workflows. I'm a published author. Find my book- The Comedy of Careers on Amazon! I also write The Pivotpreneurs – a weekly LinkedIn newsletter where I share career lessons, life after layoffs, AI tools and fun stories about learning, failure, and bouncing back. I love teaching, writing, and learning new tools – especially around project management, communication, and AI. My mantras: 🪴 Curiosity fuels growth ⚙️ Pivot Steady. Pivot Smart.
