About

Numbers don't lie and I am building my career on making sure they don't have to. I'm a BBA Finance student (Integrated MBA), currently interning at a Chartered Accountancy firm where I handle the kind of work most people only read about in textbooks. GST returns, TDS computation, bank reconciliations, income tax filings and I do this daily, for real clients, under real deadlines. What that's taught me is simple, clean books aren't just about compliance. They're about giving businesses the clarity to make better decisions. When I catch a ledger discrepancy or file a zero-error GST return, I'm not just ticking a box, I'm making sure someone's financial picture is accurate enough to act on. Beyond the CA firm, I've been selected for the McKinsey Forward Program and Aspire Leaders Program, both of which pushed me to think beyond entries and returns, and start connecting financial data to actual business strategy. My toolkit →Tally ERP 9, Microsoft Excel (Pivot Tables, VLOOKUP, Financial Modelling), GST & TDS compliance, financial statement preparation, and bank reconciliation. I'm looking for finance roles where I can bring both technical accuracy and analytical thinking to a team that takes numbers seriously. If that sounds like someone your team needs, connect with me right here on LinkedIn.
