About Kanika Arora

What happens when finance meets data, technology, and AI? You get someone like me—an experienced finance leader who’s as comfortable building hedge fund models in Python as designing performance dashboards in Power BI or fine-tuning large language models (LLMs). With 14+ years across roles like CFO, FP & A Lead, and Regional Director, I bring a unique blend of analytical rigor, AI curiosity, and storytelling to business decision-making. I specialize in: • Data-backed performance evaluation • AI-integrated reporting frameworks • Financial modeling & strategic insight delivery My toolkit includes SQL, Tableau, Python, Power BI, and Amazon Quicksight, and I’ve built self-serve analytics ecosystems that save 40%+ effort while improving stakeholder alignment. Now, I’m exploring to partner with data science/AI/finance teams to solve business problems at scale, especially in LLM optimization, business intelligence, and strategic FP & A. If your team is working at the intersection of finance, data, and AI—let’s connect. I’m excited to bring structured thinking, domain expertise, and curiosity to the future of decision-making.
