About

I’m a finance leader grounded in integrity, precision, and long-view strategy—with over a decade of experience translating complex numbers into narratives that drive decisions at the top. From leading zero-error financial reporting for one of Nepal’s largest telecom companies to advising C-suite leaders on long-term financial direction, my work has always been about more than numbers—it’s about trust, clarity, and action. I specialize in building systems that stand up to scrutiny: audit-ready reporting, compliance-driven governance, and forecasting that supports sustainable growth. My edge lies in fusing policy awareness, cross-functional alignment, and hands-on execution—especially in high-stakes environments. As I shift deeper into financial planning, ESG alignment, and data-driven analysis, I’m excited to bring a forward-facing lens to finance—linking operational insight with strategic outcomes. I believe that finance, done right, has the power to lead—not just support—transformation. And I’m committed to being part of the next generation of leaders who shape not just business results, but how value is defined in a changing world.
