I build audit-ready financial reporting and internal controls for growing businesses.
What I'm looking for
I provide financial reporting, audit support, and internal-control advisory to growth-stage and small-to-mid-sized businesses, helping them build audit-defensible financial foundations.
At the City of Markham, I prepared financial statements for associate entities and Government Business Enterprises, led operating expense reporting, supported month-end and year-end close, and delivered variance analysis and management insights. I also supported external audits and process improvements during system transformation.
Previously, at KNAV India and Aldrich Business Services, I led Canadian limited reviews and conducted U.S. financial statement audits across construction, retail, manufacturing, healthcare, real estate, and technology.
I'm a Chartered Accountant (India) and Certified Internal Auditor focused on U.S. GAAP, ASPE, IFRS, reconciliations, financial analysis, and controls that withstand audit and investor scrutiny.
