About Me

From a Small Town in Rajasthan to Singapore's Finance Frontier

I grew up in Merta City, Rajasthan - studied in Hindi-medium schools, qualified as a Chartered Accountant, and built a career that has taken me from India to Singapore. 
That same discipline is now what I bring to helping finance teams transform with AI.

Think of my journey as a compound interest story. Small, consistent efforts over 13+ years, now compounding further through AI and automation, into something meaningful.

Today, I lead Corporate Development at Traveloka, Southeast Asia's leading online travel platform. Prior to this, I spent formative years at EssilorLuxottica at their Regional HQ in Singapore, and at Welspun in manufacturing.

My career spans tech, manufacturing, consumer goods, infrastructure, and travel - giving me a multi-industry lens that few finance leaders carry. I specialize in building FP&A frameworks from scratch, enabling strategic decision-making, and pioneering AI integration into financial workflows. In May 2026, I completed the ISCA · INSEAD CFO Apex Programme - an elite executive education cohort for finance leaders on the CFO trajectory.
