About

As the Principal Officer & Compliance Head at Onmeta, I operate at the intersection of crypto innovation and regulatory integrity, ensuring that trust, transparency, and compliance are built into the fabric of everything we do. From filing Suspicious Transaction Reports (STRs) to designing AI-driven risk engines, I lead initiatives that protect users, streamline regulatory engagement, and set new benchmarks for AML/CFT governance in the Web3 ecosystem. A former mobility scaler (Rapido), I’ve now found my calling in building compliance-first infrastructure for India’s digital asset economy. Whether it’s training cybercrime police on crypto forensics, building transaction monitoring systems, or navigating complex #FIU norms, my goal remains the same: powering trust in Web3, without slowing innovation. Let’s connect if you're building in fintech, care about regulatory clarity, or simply want to future-proof your platform against emerging financial crime risks.
