About
I kept asking:
does it have to be
this messy?
I’m a mountain girl from Himachal, raised as a defence kid. New cities, new people and starting over were part of growing up. Maybe that’s where the curiosity came from: the habit of observing first, adapting quickly and always asking one more question.
Six years inside finance taught me how decisions move through a business. At BiteSpeed, I stopped only reporting the friction and started building around it.
Now I research messy problems, design the flow, and ship the answer.

04 / Experience
Six years of closing books.
Then I started building.
Finance taught me to follow the numbers. Product taught me to follow the friction.
apparently.
Record-to-report, Chandigarh
- Ran record-to-report for multiple global clients: month-end close, journal validation, reconciliations and reporting, with zero late submissions.
- Kept the books across QuickBooks, NetSuite and Expensify, and supported an ERP migration without losing data continuity.
- Trained junior associates on close procedures and kept audit working papers clean.
Fund accounting for a Toronto-based company, hybrid from Chandigarh
- Calculated NAV per unit for 10+ vehicles: hedge funds, REITs, private equity and funds of funds.
- Processed and reviewed 500+ portfolio transactions a month and cut reconciliation errors by more than half.
- Prepared and peer-reviewed IFRS balance sheets and P&L statements, and led audit preparation.
The one that changed the direction
- Built the AR function from a solo seat into a six-person team in 11 months, with 100% retention, and owned the invoice-to-cash cycle end to end.
- Managed and reconciled $500K+ in monthly receipts across EFT, cheque and wire.
- Built the finance dashboard the team adopted for collections, ageing and DSO, feeding weekly management reporting and P&L inputs.
The workflow I used to run, rebuilt as a product
- Ran discovery with finance users across invoicing, reconciliation, collections and disputes, and turned the recurring problems into requirements, user flows and a priority order.
- Designed the end-to-end workflows with the edge cases written down, then built and tested prototypes to prove them before anything went into development.
- Worked with engineering and design to ship the features, set the success metrics for each workflow and used user feedback to decide what changed next.
Alongside the jobs
A live course taught by Shravan Tickoo, taken alongside work, with 80 PMs, founders and leaders
- 8 PRDs written, 4 prototypes built and 1 live product in the first 9 weeks, through weekly co-builds, teardowns and product pitches.
- Built four products from 0 to 1 on my own time during and after the course: Nibble (44 DAU to 84 WAU in week one, 255 automated tests), Loocator (19 spots verified on foot), Orqen and ORYVN, owning discovery, PRDs, flows, instrumentation, evals and the code.
- Discovery, interaction design and evals in practice: an AI collaborator that is wrong on purpose, and a human-in-the-loop judgement rubric.
