About

I’m a management consulting professional with 6+ years of experience advising BFSI and healthcare clients across the US and EMEA markets. Currently, I serve as a Senior Manager in the Fraud Strategy team at EXL. My journey includes prior roles at Accenture Strategy & Consulting and Optum(UHG), where I worked across consulting and product management teams. I also spent four years at EXL earlier in my career as an Analytics Consultant in Credit Strategy before pursuing my MBA. Outside of work, I enjoy singing and playing chess.
