About Me

Ardhi A. Pradhana

Hi, I'm Ardhi.

Over my 15+ years in finance with both global giants and startups, I've transformed complex numbers into insights that move businesses forward—from leading 14-entity operations across 50+ locations to managing $90M+ in M&A deals.

Think of me as the finance guy you'd genuinely enjoy talking to. I'm a trusted partner who helps you spot challenges early, makes decisions simpler, and keeps you confidently in control without getting lost in your numbers.

If you're building something meaningful and want a fresh perspective on your financial landscape, I'd love to connect and show you what's possible when the right strategic mind meets your ambition.
