About

I help global technology companies recover revenue, reduce compliance risk, and make faster decisions through data — working cross-functionally across EMEA, Europe, and APAC. Over 3 years at Synopsys and EY, I've led end-to-end software license audits, built Power BI dashboards that give real-time SOX compliance visibility, and automated audit workflows with Python — cutting manual effort by 70% and recovering millions in underreported license fees. What I do best: → IP licensing audits & revenue recovery (15–30% uplift in recovery rates) → SOX & ISO 27001 compliance, control gap analysis, and remediation → Power BI (DAX / Power Query) dashboards for compliance KPIs → Python + SQL automation for large-scale usage and financial data → Cross-functional collaboration with Finance, Legal, and Big Four audit teams Completed my MBA in Finance (University of Mysore) through an online program while working full-time at Synopsys — a reflection of how I operate: I deliver under pressure, think in systems, and consistently look for ways to automate or improve what's in front of me. Based in Bengaluru, I work closely with EMEA, Europe, and APAC teams — and I'm comfortable with async collaboration and time zone overlap when needed.
