I am a Strategic Finance, Administration & Compliance Leader with over 20 years of experience driving operational excellence in donor-funded development programs across South Asia. My career spans senior leadership roles in finance, HR, procurement, and grants management, where I have built a reputation for meticulous documentation, regulatory compliance, and empowering organizations through clarity and structure.

With advanced degrees in accounting, administration, and leadership, I combine technical expertise with a strategic mindset to strengthen institutions, streamline processes, and ensure accountability. I thrive on creating systems that not only meet compliance standards but also empower teams to perform at their best.

At the heart of my work is a commitment to clarity, authenticity, and operational excellence — values that guide me in every role, whether consulting, leading, or observing. I take pride in being a trusted record-keeper, compliance facilitator, and strategic partner who helps organizations achieve sustainable impact.
