Why did you choose Daniels

I chose Daniels specifically because its curriculum perfectly aligns with my professional aspirations. The supportive, personalized, and project-based environment I sought has been fully realized over the past year. I’ve found that the small class sizes effectively facilitate discussion and personalized instruction, and the practical application of concepts through the unique Daniels Challenges has been exactly what I hoped for.

Previous Education

Bachelor’s degree in commerce, accounting and taxation from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India

Pre-Grad School Experience

I spent the last few years working at KPMG India. I worked in corporate and international taxation for the technology sector, focusing on client advisory. My responsibilities included guiding multinational corporate clients through changes in Indian tax laws and ensuring their tax compliance.

Post Grad School Goal

My post-master’s goal is to transition into a tax technology role, utilizing my tax background and the technological understanding gained from the MS program to drive innovation in tax compliance and advisory services.

Hobbies

I grew up immersed in soccer, playing and watching alongside my older brother. Recently, though, I’ve become completely hooked on the speed, strategy and precision of Formula 1 racing. It is my new favorite obsession.
