What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role in finance where I can leverage my analytical skills and contribute to risk management and financial analysis.

I am a dedicated finance professional with a strong academic background in Accounting and Finance, having graduated with a B.Com (Hons) from Ali Waqar University of Management and Technology with a CGPA of 3.64. My journey in the finance sector began with my role as an Officer in Fraud and Risk at MCB Islamic Bank, where I apply my analytical skills to mitigate risks and enhance operational efficiency.

Prior to this, I gained valuable experience as a Finance Associate, where I honed my skills in corporate finance and investment banking during my internship at 7 Kings Code LLC. My commitment to excellence was recognized with the Dean Award, and I have also completed various internships that have equipped me with practical knowledge in financial analysis, marketing research, and project management.
