Bio
My name is Prameela Nagam, and I am a Senior Integration Engineer at Tokio Marine North America Services, based in Philadelphia, PA. I have a master's degree in Organic Chemistry, where I graduated at the top of my class and received a gold medal. I am also a proud mother of two teenage children and enjoy gardening, which brings me peace and happiness.
After getting married, I decided to switch my career to Information Technology. I have worked with Verizon, Bank of America, Deloitte, the State of Pennsylvania, and now, Tokio Marine North America Services. I have been with Tokio Marine for 10 years. My work in IT has been both challenging and rewarding, and I always try to keep up with new technologies and trends.
Balancing work and personal life has been a rewarding experience, helping me grow both professionally and personally. My background in Organic Chemistry has taught me to think carefully and pay attention to details, which has been very helpful in my IT career.
