I'm Lahiru. My journey took me from Sri Lanka to the UK to Australia — building a career in finance, working with clients worldwide, and starting my own business along the way. Somewhere in that journey, I discovered the power of turning skills into income. I created MonetizeIQ to help you do the same.

My career started at KPMG, where I learned the basics of accounting, then Moody's, where I worked in investment research. In the UK, I worked with Fitch Ratings and Valtech, helping startups, small and medium companies, and corporates with financial modelling and data analytics. On the side, I also started freelancing — starting from zero, with no clients or reviews. That experience changed how I saw my own skills, and I'm now a Top-Rated freelancer on Upwork.
I once read about an idea called social entrepreneurship — building something that genuinely helps people, while also earning a sustainable income. That idea stuck with me, and I chose to build MonetizeIQ exactly that way. MonetizeIQ helps people turn their skills and knowledge into real income. I'm building it one step at a time. Thanks for being part of it.
Throughout my career in Sri Lanka, the UK, and Australia, I’ve had the privilege of working with talented professionals and global organisations. Here’s what some of them have said about working with me.

“I’ve had the pleasure of managing Lahiru, and his work ethic, attention to detail, and financial modelling expertise are truly outstanding.
