Kochi, Kerala, India
As a child, little did I know that I could make a living out of having an eye for details. When it was time to chose a career ( other than science off course ) I chose to be a Chartered Accountant. It was after I began my articleship (internship) that I realised to avoid the wind I had steered my boat in the right direction. With over three years of accounting, auditing and management consulting experience with JVR and Associates , Kochi , post qualification I chose to explore the sands of US GAAP for about a year with Deloitte and Touche Hyderabad as an External audit senior assistant. Following which I worked with Grant Thornton Indian for about two and a half year handling the audits and several listed and private entities. After gaining about three years of experience in audit , I am now all set to dive into a career with Capital Market and Accounting Advisory services of PWC as a Senior Associate.
