I graduated from University of California, Berkeley in 2022 with a B.A. in Political Economy and a minor in Environmental Economics and Policy. I'm passionate about working on complex real-world problems to provide meaningful data-driven solutions for businesses and people alike.

What I Do

Analytics

Analytics is not just about using fancy machine learning models and creating pretty visuals. It encompasses a strong foundation in statistics, code, and business acumen, while also understanding how to navigate stakeholder expectations. I strive to critically analyze and offer actionable insights to improve decision-making processes.

Domain Knowledge

I have a diverse background in economics, political science, finance, trade, public policy, and international relations. I'm passionate about how the economy and markets work, and how these complex issues often affect our day-to-day life. As a life-long student, I hope to continue learning, have lively discussions, and leverage my experiences to help others.

Involvement

At Berkeley, I've worked on a finance research project with two Berkeley Haas professors. I was a Regional Director for Data Science for India as well as a Peer Tutor and Lab Assistant for the Intro to Computer Science (CS 10) course. I've also been involved with Berkeley Investment Group, Jain Students Association, and captained two intramural soccer teams.
