About

As a recent graduate in Economics from the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, I am deeply passionate about finance and driven to excel in this dynamic field. My academic background, combined with practical experience, has equipped me with strong financial analysis, quantitative research, and investment strategy skills. During my six-month tenure as a Quantitative Researcher at Orim Advisors, I developed and implemented alpha-generating strategies and models, gaining invaluable insights into the financial sector and honing my quantitative analysis abilities. This experience solidified my interest and competence in finance. In my role as a Business Analyst at CENSIE Capital Partners, a boutique investment banking firm recognized as one of the most active by India's Premium "Venture Intelligence League Tables 2021," I conducted qualitative and quantitative research on various companies across different sectors. My work aligned with the investment theses of multiple client funds, providing me with a comprehensive understanding of startup fundraising, particularly in the $1M - $25M range, spanning Seed to Series B stages from the Global VC community. My passion for finance has driven me to undertake various investment-based projects, including scrutinizing Value Investing, Growth Investing, and Thematic Investing. I am committed to continuous learning, as reflected in my engagement with seminal books like "The Intelligent Investor" and "One Up on Wall Street," alongside earlier reads such as "Think and Grow Rich" and "Rich Dad, Poor Dad." To further enhance my financial acumen, I recently completed an intensive five-day workshop on financial modeling. This experience has refined my analytical capabilities and deepened my understanding of financial markets. I am dedicated to continuously honing my skills and embracing new challenges in the finance field. In addition to my finance-focused roles, I served as a Product Manager at Brik+Clik, where I applied my analytical skills to conduct competitor analysis, develop product mixes, design packaging themes, and establish brand guidelines. This role enriched my skill set and contributed to the company’s growth. With a solid foundation of diverse experiences and a fervent passion for finance, I am a valuable asset to any team or organization in the financial industry. I am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead and am eager to continue learning, growing, and making meaningful contributions to this dynamic field.
