Program Manager @ Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser | Ex-Morgan Stanley | CFA L1 Cleared | US CMA | Bsc Finance

About

Finance taught me how money moves. Morgan Stanley taught me how markets operate. Working with the Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser is teaching me how science, technology and institutions come together. I studied Finance at NMIMS Bangalore and started my career in capital markets operations at Morgan Stanley. Today, I work across strategic initiatives at the Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser, engaging with government, academia, industry and the innovation ecosystem. I am increasingly interested in what happens at the intersection of these worlds: fintech, AI, startups, investing and technology-driven businesses. I like understanding complicated things, finding the underlying system, and then trying to build something better around it. This is the intersection I want to work at: finance, technology and innovation, especially where ideas can move from capital and technology into real-world businesses and impact.
