Investment Banking Analyst | M&A & Corporate Finance | CFA Level-1 | Financial Modeling & Valuation (DCF, LBO) | Master’s in Global Finance

About

I am a Finance professional with a Master’s in Global Finance and a background spanning Singapore, Dubai, and India. My expertise lies at the intersection of rigorous financial accounting (CA Inter) and forward-looking strategic valuation (CFA Path). Having completed the J.P. Morgan Investment Banking Simulation, I have developed a deep proficiency in building complex DCF models, conducting comparable company analysis, and synthesizing market data into actionable investment theses. My experience at Flydubai provided a solid foundation in managing large-scale financial data and ensuring the integrity of corporate financial statements. I am driven by the challenge of analyzing capital structures and evaluating M&A opportunities. I thrive in high-pressure environments that require both the precision of an accountant and the strategic mindset of an investment banker. Core Competencies: Valuation: DCF, Relative Valuation, Precedent Transactions, LBO Modeling. Technical: 3-Statement Modeling, Accrual Accounting, Variance Analysis. Platforms: Advanced Excel, Power BI, Bloomberg, Capital IQ. Currently seeking opportunities in Investment Banking, Equity Research, or Corporate Development.
