Strategy Consultant at IBM | Ex-Headout | Growth & Strategy | Business Transformation | Market Expansion | SPJIMR

About

Strategy, Growth & Operations professional with 5.5+ years of experience across both high-growth startups and consulting environments. Started my journey in Finance at Headout, building a strong foundation in business operations and managing global finance processes. Over time, I moved into Program Management, leading automation and process improvement initiatives that drove $6M+ impact and reduced duplicate transaction losses by 85%. Wanting to move closer to business ownership, I transitioned into Growth, leading Thailand & Indonesia expansion initiatives—scaling Thailand to $350K+ monthly revenue and launching Indonesia from scratch to $40K+ monthly revenue within 3 months. Post MBA at SPJIMR, I’m now working as a Strategy Consultant at IBM, continuing to solve complex business problems and drive transformation initiatives across enterprise environments.
