I graduated from Shiv Nadar University in 2025 with a BSc in Economics (Minor in Management), including an undergraduate thesis using Difference-in-Differences analysis to evaluate the Make in India policy's impact on exports and FDI. I have spent my internships across consulting and risk advisory, working on market research, competitive analysis, and product strategy. At Coastal Seven Consulting, I worked on 10+ market and competitor research reports in the AI consulting space, ran beta product stress tests, and analyzed 100+ enterprise social accounts to track positioning and content trends. I also handled outreach for a webinar series, securing 60% of the expert speaker lineup. At EY, I researched operational, financial, and regulatory risk across the laminates and airline industries, and built presentations summarizing findings and mitigation options for internal review.
