What I'm looking for

I seek a role leveraging US and Indian accounting expertise, focused on accurate financial reporting, tax compliance, process improvement, and collaborative client advisory.

I am a detail-oriented CA Finalist with over a decade of experience in Indian accounting, taxation, and audit, plus 4+ years handling US accounting and tax compliance. I specialize in US GAAP, preparing Forms 1040/1065/1120/1120S, reconciliations, financial reporting, and end-to-end bookkeeping.

I have worked across KPOs, consultancy practices, cooperative societies, and audit firms, delivering accounting process improvements, internal control testing, GST and TDS compliance, and client-focused advisory. I prepare financial statements, tax returns, fixed asset schedules, journals, and SOPs, and collaborate closely with CPA firms and clients to resolve discrepancies.

I bring strengths in communication, teamwork, and process optimization, with hands-on experience in QuickBooks Online, Tally, Drake, Google Sheets, and Excel. I am committed to accurate reporting, regulatory compliance, and helping organizations streamline finance operations.
