My professional journey began in Chennai, India, in 2000, where I spent three years in the heart of the manufacturing industry, meticulously managing the books and navigating the labyrinthine world of import/export. It was like carefully crafting a steel utensil, ensuring each detail was precise and every edge polished.
By 2003, I had traded the factory floor for the bustling environment of wholesale and retail. Here, I honed my accounting skills, overseeing the company’s transformation from a proprietorship to a private limited company. Think of it as transitioning from crafting individual utensils to orchestrating a symphony of financial operations.
Intrigued by the world of personal finance, I obtained my insurance license in 2005. At the time, it was merely a side hustle, a small seed planted in the fertile soil of my career. Little did I know that this seed would lie dormant for years, only to blossom unexpectedly later in life.
Fate then intervened, leading me to Pune, where I received a job offer from Mphasis as a Financial Analyst. But an accident threw a wrench in my plans, delaying my start by six months. When I finally joined, I quickly found my footing, transitioning from accounting operations to the broader world of P&L management and financial forecasting.
A business trip to Malaysia in 2007 introduced me to the vibrant city-state of Singapore, igniting a spark of desire to make it my home. That spark flickered into a flame when I interviewed with EMC in Singapore, but the global financial crisis of 2008 put my dreams on hold.
Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, the opportunity emerged again in 2010, and I finally made the move to Singapore to join EMC. I spent 13 fulfilling years with EMC & Dell combined, contributing to various business units and growing as a financial professional.
In 2023, another unexpected turn occurred when my role became redundant due to restructuring. It felt like my Singapore dream was crumbling. But in a twist of fate, my permanent residency application was approved just weeks before my last day at Dell Technologies, giving me a renewed sense of hope and determination.
After a brief stint in the distribution industry, I realized it wasn’t the right fit. Then, in October 2023, a long-forgotten seed sprouted. I remembered my dormant insurance license and felt a calling to return to the world of financial advising.
I quickly obtained the necessary certifications and joined Financial Alliance Pte Ltd, one of Singapore’s largest independent financial advisory firms. It felt like a homecoming, returning to a path I had started years ago with a newfound sense of purpose.
In the competitive financial advisory landscape, I consider myself fortunate to be part of an independent firm. This allows me to prioritize my clients’ needs above all else, offering them unbiased advice and tailored solutions.
My career has been a winding road, filled with unexpected detours and challenges. But each twist and turn has ultimately led me to where I am today, a financial advisor dedicated to helping others achieve their financial goals.
I’m excited to continue this journey with Financial Alliance, knowing that my past experiences have uniquely prepared me for this role. It’s a testament to the fact that sometimes, life’s greatest opportunities come full circle.
