Getting To Know Our Indian Partners!!

Preeti Joshi

When you meet Preeti, you see a really cute, sweet young woman. And she is! But,she is also very aggressive when it comes to her job. Preeti is inside sales in Mumbai. She works closely with the sales team and enjoys helping customers with her vast knowledge of parts and Haas machines. Preeti has received the Brand Ambassador Award.

When I asked Preeti what she liked about her job she told me that her opinion matters. That when she talked, she was listened to. Not that every thing she suggests gets implemented but she knows that it was considered. That means a lot to her. When asked what she would like to make her job better, she said she would like more technical training for her position. She feels it would help her, to help her customers even more.

Preeti grew up and still lives in Thane, about 2 hours from work. In order to get to work, she takes a bus, train and walks. That is so amazing to me. You really need to be dedicated to your employer and happy with your job to travel that distance. Thankfully, Preeti lives with her inlaws. This is called a joined family in India and is very common. Because of the long hours during the week for Preeti, they help take care of her adorable son, Archit.(Preeti says he is the Love of her life!)Preeti's inlaws also cook dinner during the week to help her out. 

Preeti went to college in Thanes and got her degree in accounting.Friends are very important and she still stays in touch with her college friends. Her sister is her best friend!!!

Preeti married Sunil in 2010. They met in college and after 9 years they got married!  Their marriage was a love marriage. You can see it in their eyes! 

Preeti lives near her Mother and Father. She also lives near her younger sister that got married a couple years ago. Family is very important to Preeti and she enjoys the time she gets to spend with all of them.

Preeti's religion is Hindi and Ganesh(the Elephant God)is who she worships. Preeti enjoys all the holidays and festivals. 

Especially Diwali,dancing and hanging out with her son!

Preeti is a vegetarian and most holidays involve eating! Preeti's favorite food is Chat. Chat is a street food but Preeti likes to make her own, that way she can make it very spicy! I like spicy, so she told me she was damn sure I would like it!  hmmm.. Looking forward to trying it!

Preeti loves music and romantic movies. She loves to travel and the one place she wanted to visit one day was the west coast of the Unites States!  The reason I say wanted instead of wants,is because she got to go there to the Haas meeting this past February! She truly enjoyed meeting every one at Haas and even accepted the award for India at the meeting. Very exciting time!

She also got to go to Universal Studios to hang out for the day!

And saw some pretty cool cars. Though, Mustangs are her favorite!

Preeti loves traveling all over India. Especially to Manali in northern India. It seems the colder the better! Skiing, riding a Yak and holding bunnies!  I think they held the bunnies to keep warm!!!

She also likes to trek,that is hiking, with her family and friends,  Thankfully in warmer places!

Preeti now gets to chose another place in the world she would like to travel to. Singapore!! She has heard they have a great zoo and she loves animals. I bet she goes there as well!

Preeti grew up admiring her Grandfather. He was the personal assistant to the police commissioner and would come home and tell her all kinds of interesting stories.

Preeti says she is a talker! Everyone knows just about every thing about her! (except she loved to play badminton when she was young). The one thing she would like everyone to know is she is honest.  You will always get the truth from her. No matter what!
