I am an economics and financial analysis professional with a PhD in Financial and Banking Sciences, an MBA in Financial Management, and a Bachelor's degree in Economics. I bring more than 10 years of experience across financial analysis, financial reporting, accounting, auditing, tax reporting, restructuring and insolvency procedures, and technical report preparation. I specialize in analyzing financial information, reviewing tax-related records, assessing financial positions, identifying compliance and control issues, and preparing evidence-based technical reports and recommendations. My experience includes UAE restructuring and insolvency assignments, court-related evidence analysis, financial reporting for senior management and boards, budgeting, forecasting, audit, and regulatory-facing technical work. I am seeking to apply my research, analytical, tax, and technical writing capabilities to tax policy development and the review of tax-related matters within the UAE regulatory environment.
