Chartered Accountant with 12 years experience in Accounting, Finance, and Business Intelligence.
I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants in the United Kingdom and a Finance graduate. I started my professional career with PwC as a Functional Consultant, later moved to at FTSE 100 FMCG as a Finance Manager, then working a General Manager developed an outsourcing hub 'Excelsious' for US and UK accounting firms, and finally cofounded Receipt Bot - an accounting automation company which is automating some tedious aspects of Accounting for clients from 21 countries.
Right from the beginning of my career, my role has been to improve the Accounting and Reporting systems. From automating data entry and bookkeeping to the preparation of interactive business analysis dashboards for the senior management, I have led multiple assignments.
Over my professional career of 12 years, I have been teaching several programs of Accounting and BI at some reputed institutes. Over this time, I have trained 20,000+ students from 50+ countries.
I am absolutely delighted to share my skills and experience with you on the Udemy platform!
