About

As a Risk Management Analyst at American Express, I specialize in suspect scam strategy — identifying, analyzing, and mitigating fraudulent activity to protect customers and minimize financial risk. My work involves leveraging data analytics to detect suspicious patterns, develop risk frameworks, and drive strategic decisions that strengthen fraud prevention across the business. MBA graduate in Marketing and Operations and Supply Chain Management from IIM Mumbai, I bring a unique blend of analytical thinking and strategic insight to risk management. My background spans energy marketing, supply chain optimization, demand planning, and now financial risk and fraud strategy. I specialize in strategic planning, data-driven decision making, and translating complex risk insights into actionable business strategies that drive both operational efficiency and customer protection.
