Product Manager @ Tide | Tax Technologist (Ex - Avalara, Clear) | Ex-Big 4 | Start-up Enthusiast

About

Product leader with a decade of diverse experience spanning finance, taxation, and product management. My journey began in top-tier consulting at EY and KPMG, where I led 30+ due diligence projects, guided startups and MNCs through complex tax transitions, and worked with tech teams to innovate compliance tools. Transitioning into product management, I found my passion in solving business challenges at scale. At Clear (formerly ClearTax), I owned the MaxITC product end-to-end—re-writing the same. Have closely worked to launch new modules to ensure compliance integrity, and led a regional business unit to record growth. Currently at Avalara, I am driving the move to a unified platform for the EMEA region, focused on seamless customer experiences and scalable infrastructure. I lead strategy across workflows, dashboard development, and shared services adoption, collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver real impact. I thrive in high-growth, fast-paced settings where I can blend strategic thinking with hands-on execution. Whether building roadmaps, developing new tech solutions, or mentoring teams, I keep user needs at the center and leverage my deep understanding of both product and finance. Outside work, I enjoy staying at the forefront of product trends through podcasts, ongoing learning, and sharing ideas with the community.
