About

I am a highly driven candidate with a strategic and adaptable mindset and experience in driving strategic, operational, and complex transformations. I believe the key to success is communication, ongoing cross-team/functional collaboration and understanding client needs, and continued perseverance and grit. I believe in continuous learning and exploration of ideas. Always up for intellectual and light-hearted discussions. Looking forward to meet new people and opportunities through this platform. A well said quote from Roger Federer succinctly summarizes my belief - "Effortless is a myth. People would say my play was effortless, they meant it as a compliment. The Truth is , I had to work very hard to make it look easy. It's not about having a gift, it's about having a grit" I have total 8+ years of experience with 6+ years of Management Consulting experience advising Fortune 500 and boutique clients across Investment and Wealth Management, Insurance, and Banking. Worked extensively in Op Model Analysis and Design, Business Analysis & Strategy, Tech Strategy and Assessment, Process Improvement, Operations Digitization, Large-scale Transformation, Prototype & Wireframe Design, and Business Development and Sales Excellence.
