Consulting service to clients in the financial services sphere

As a managing consultant, I manage multi-million-dollar programs and projects across functions for my banking clients. I leverage my years of consulting experience in the financial services industry to add value to my clients.

Positive and spirited people; incredible social culture

The best kinds of people to work with are people who take their work seriously but not themselves. Synechron is full of positive and spirited people. These people are the reason I am here. The incredible social culture at Synechron is also a significant factor for me. Everyone in the firm, right from Faisal and Tanveer are super-approachable, whether in the board room or on the dance-floor.

MBA from INSEAD and a CFA charter

Armed with my INSEAD MBA, CFA charter and a few other finance-related certifications, I have worked across the globe on assignments ranging from project management and social-impact investing to quantitative risk management and internal audits. I also have 16 years of partying experience which I heavily tap into, to navigate through Synechron's out-of-the-world social dynamic and work-hard play-hard culture.

Cooking and teaching

I love teaching (read: getting paid to talk). I spent many years coaching students to ace the CFA and CMA certification tests. I conducted corporate workshops on negotiations and team dynamics. I even started my own cooking class, teaching the locals in Luxembourg to cook Indian Vegetarian food.
