Deal Advisory Associate

I am a dedicated Deal Advisory Associate with extensive experience in financial modeling, valuation, and strategic analysis within the energy, mining, technology, and consumer goods sectors. Currently, I work at KPMG in Baku, Azerbaijan, where I lead multiple engagement streams involving projects valued between $50 million and $1 billion across the Caucasus and Central Asia. My expertise includes developing discounted cash flow (DCF) valuation models, updating complex financial models, and delivering actionable insights to support strategic decision-making.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed large-scale projects such as a $500 million financial model update for an Azerbaijani client and a $170 million titanium mining project, ensuring timely delivery and strong client outcomes. I have also consolidated multiple complex financial models for engagements valued at over $1.5 billion, collaborating with cross-border teams and earning recognition for exceptional performance.

Previously, I served as a Deal Advisory Executive, where I led valuation work for multiple companies under tight deadlines, transforming disorganized data into investor-ready formats and optimizing financial projections aligned with business objectives. I independently managed an end-to-end canning factory project valued at $100 million, developing comprehensive financial models and investment analyses.

My internship experience includes conducting detailed technical asset analyses for large portfolios, demonstrating strong data accuracy and earning performance awards. Additionally, I have IT support experience, maintaining corporate IT systems and resolving technical issues.

I hold a Bachelor of Engineering degree in Technological Machines and Equipment from Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University and have earned the FMVA® Certification in Financial Modeling & Valuation Analysis from the Corporate Finance Institute. I am proficient in both English and Russian and am committed to continuous professional growth in the financial advisory field.
