About

With over 10 years of experience as an Indirect Tax Advisor, I've navigated the complexities of VAT/GST across the UK, UAE, and Singapore, delivering tailored solutions to diverse clientele. My journey is distinguished by hands-on projects, from conducting risk management reviews in Singapore to implementing VAT ERP configurations in the UAE and dissecting UK and EU VAT laws. This global exposure has honed my expertise in indirect tax legislation, critical thinking, communication, and project management. As a Chartered Tax Advisor (VAT) in the UK and an Accredited Tax Advisor (GST) in Singapore, my credentials underscore my commitment to excellence and understanding of international tax regimes. My current focus is on empowering clients with effective tax risk management techniques, especially within the nuanced landscapes of GST. I thrive on collaboration and transparency, motivated by the challenge of providing value-add solutions. My goal is to demystify indirect taxes for my clients, ensuring compliance and optimising their tax position. Let's connect and explore how we can tackle the complexities of indirect taxation together. Whether you're seeking strategic advice, risk management solutions, or insights into the latest tax legislation, my global experience and professional accreditations equip me to guide you towards achieving your tax objectives and driving your business forward.
