I'm a finance leader who believes numbers tell stories about people, not just profits.
Born a refugee and raised in camps for over 20 years, I learned early that resources are sacred and accountability isn't optional. That shaped how I approach finance: with precision, yes, but also with deep respect for what's at stake.
For 13 years, I've built financial systems across conflict zones and growth-stage companies, from managing $25M+ portfolios in Kabul to leading global FP&A across three continents today. I've cut month-end close times by 30%, automated compliance workflows, and built forecasting models that actually help leaders make decisions.
But what I'm really good at is translating complexity into clarity. Whether it's IFRS reporting, multi-currency reconciliations, or SaaS metrics dashboards, I turn financial chaos into systems people can trust and use.
I'm fluent in English, Dari, Pashto, and Urdu, languages that reflect the cross-cultural work I do. CGMA certified, Executive MBA from Quantic (Powell Aid Scholar), and always learning (currently: Finnish, German, Danish).
Based in Nairobi. Open to opportunities across finance leadership, FP&A, and strategic operations—especially with mission-driven organizations building something that matters.
