I turn messy client ledgers into clean, audit-ready numbers — and I build the tools that do it faster. Currently automating VAT compliance workflows with agentic AI at a UK accounting practice while completing my degree.
Select your graduate programme below to instantly highlight my relevant technical skills, coursework, and case studies.
Equipped with a solid blend of university-level corporate finance theory and practical commercial ledger accounting. Proven agility across statutory accounts, multi-scenario modelling, and executive stakeholder reporting.
I'm a third-year Business Management & Finance student self-studying toward the ACA, working part-time as a Junior Accountant at a UK practice. My day-to-day covers VAT returns under Making Tax Digital, bank reconciliations, and HMRC correspondence on Xero — the unglamorous, high-precision work that keeps a practice compliant.
What I actually bring beyond that: I noticed our VAT categorisation process was repetitive and error-prone, so I built an agentic AI workflow using Claude Code to automate it. It's now been used across 30+ client VAT returns and saves roughly a day of manual work a week. I also founded and now lead the St Mary's Student Investment Society, and separately started a Sports & Games society from scratch.
Self-studying towards the ACA (ICAEW). Academic coursework includes Financial Accounting, Corporate Finance, Management Accounting, Business Law, and Quantitative Analysis.
Verifiable practice execution, AI tool-building, and demonstrated university leadership.
Xero, MTD VAT filing, bank reconciliation, HMRC correspondence, Excel (formulas, pivot tables), and hands-on experience building AI-assisted workflows with Claude Code to automate repetitive accounting tasks.
Identified and automated a manual VAT categorisation bottleneck — real production use across 30+ returns, ~1 day/week saved. Currently self-studying towards the ACA.
Founded and lead two university societies (Investment Society; Sports & Games Society) from concept to running events — constitution, promotional material, and member recruitment handled personally.
Fluent in English, Urdu, Hindi, and Punjabi. Comfortable explaining technical reconciliation issues and HMRC queries to non-financial clients and business owners.
A DCF model and audit materiality simulator I built to practice corporate finance mechanics and ISA 320 logic — adjust the assumptions below to test the sensitivity.
Adjust the valuation inputs or trigger preset corporate scenarios.
Set benchmark thresholds for substantive audit analytical review.
Dynamic variance calculation against Planning & Performance Materiality thresholds.
| Account Description | FY Audited (£) | Prior FY (£) | Variance (£) | Var % | Audit Status & Action |

Combining unglamorous day-to-day practice precision with modern AI automation and quantitative financial analysis.
Hands-on bank reconciliations, multi-bank feed matching, and general ledger maintenance on Xero. Ensuring clean, audit-ready numbers across high-volume client accounts.
Preparing and reviewing VAT returns under Making Tax Digital requirements, handling client correspondence, and resolving queries directly with HMRC.
Building agentic AI tools with Claude Code to automate repetitive accounting tasks. Eliminated manual categorisation bottlenecks across 30+ live client VAT returns.
Self-directed financial modelling exploring DCF sensitivity, discount rates, and corporate valuation mechanics alongside ongoing ACA qualification preparation.
A working product, a practice model, and a society built from scratch — what I'm building outside of coursework and client ledger work right now.
An MTD ITSA-compliant UK tax filing product for self-assessment, built with a co-founder using an AI coding agent.
Landing page and core UI components are built. Currently working through the pre-launch compliance path — AML supervision under MLR2017, KYC and sandbox testing, and finalising terms and conditions — before any live filing capability goes ahead.
An interactive discounted cash flow model built to practice valuation mechanics from my coursework.
Mid-year discounting, a terminal EV/EBITDA multiple, and a simplified capex/working-capital drag, all adjustable live. Built to demonstrate the mechanics, not to value a real business.
Co-founded and now president of a new student society bringing investing and markets discussion to campus.
Took it from idea to a running society: wrote the constitution, built the founding presentation, and put together a promotional video script to recruit members. Handled the administrative and university approval side alongside the content.
Manual VAT categorisation was slow and error-prone across client files. Built an agentic AI workflow with Claude Code to automate categorisation and flagging — now in active use across 30+ client returns.
Founded and currently lead the university's first Student Investment Society. Authored the constitution, built pitch decks on Gamma, produced promo media, and recruited active student members.
Junior Accountant managing monthly VAT submissions under Making Tax Digital, multi-bank ledger reconciliations on Xero, and resolving client HMRC compliance queries.
Engineered an interactive 5-year DCF model to practice valuation mechanics, WACC discounting, mid-year cash flow conventions, and exit multiple sensitivity (featured in the Financial Lab).
Demonstrating analytical depth on modern market developments, digital audit transformation, and economic resilience.
How identifying a repetitive manual categorisation bottleneck at my practice led to building a Claude Code workflow that now saves ~1 day of manual work per week across 30+ client returns.
Balancing university study with commercial accounting work taught me that theoretical formulas must be tempered by messy real-world ledger discrepancies, incomplete receipts, and strict MTD deadlines.
Starting St Mary's Student Investment Society and the Sports & Games Society from scratch — drafting constitutions, presenting on Gamma, and turning student interest into an active community.
