Who I am

Finance professional with a bias for clarity and impact

I'm a CA Inter-qualified finance professional with over five years of hands-on experience across financial reporting, MIS automation, budgeting and statutory audit. I've worked in fast-paced environments, from an infrastructure investment trust to a chartered accountancy audit practice, where precision and speed both matter.

My core strength is translating raw financial data into sharp, actionable management insight. Whether it's building automated MIS in Excel, handling Ind AS 116 lease workings or extracting KPI dashboards from SAP, I focus on making finance work faster and smarter.
