Strategy Consulting | Finance & Economics @ NMIMS Mumbai | CFA Candidate

About

Most LinkedIn summaries are a CV with better adjectives. Mine will have some of that — but also the parts that don't fit in a bullet point. I'm a strategy consultant who's spent the last 2-3 years moving between political strategy, operations, and finance without ever quite settling into a lane. Most recently, I was part of the political intelligence team that helped unseat a state government that hadn't lost power in 15 years — I ran strategy across 7 Assembly constituencies with zero prior electoral footprint, and we won 5. Before that, I was inside the founder's office at a D2C organics company (drove a 45% sales increase), and ran product and ops for a US-based startup remotely. I'm a CFA Candidate, with an Economics degree from NMIMS Mumbai after dropping out of engineering college in Chicago. The common thread, if there is one: I get dropped into ambiguous problems and I like it that way. The part a resume won't tell you: I've solved 90% of every Telegraph crossword published in the last decade. I know the speed of light to the exact metre because I used to do physics problems for fun — never topped an exam, never came last either. I placed Top 20 in India in an English Olympiad despite never once doing a grammar drill for enjoyment, I once took my dad's car without telling and drove 700km to Benaras on a whim because a specific question was tormenting me, and I keep buying books and coffee at a rate that my credit card guy prayed for; I collect useless-until-suddenly-useful knowledge as a hobby. If I didn't have to work, I'd probably be the drummer in a mediocre band, splitting the rest of my time between poker (semi-degenerate) and building something from scratch — possibly a car, possibly regret. Anyway. I solve problems, I read data like it owes me money, and yes — my Excel is faster than it should be.
