At LTIMindtree, I led IT budget planning and financial forecasting, including Run versus Transformation expenditure classification. I evaluated project ROI and benefit realization for initiatives such as SAP migration and process automation.

At Infosys Ltd, I supported British Petroleum (BP) with financial planning, budgeting, and forecasting. I reduced accrual exposure from $1.2M to $150K through expense tracking, variance investigations, and SAP and ServiceNow reconciliations, and built Excel and Power BI dashboards for executive decision-making.
