I was part of the Public Relations Cell, where I organized and managed multiple events, campaigns, and sessions with external stakeholders, enhancing the brand presence and reputation of the institute. I also completed a summer internship at D. E. Shaw India, where I worked on a project related to DEI in recruitment, conducting data mining, benchmarking, sourcing, and branding activities. Prior to joining D. E. Shaw India, I worked as a Software Engineer at TEKsystems, where I developed, tested, and deployed software solutions using various technologies, such as Python, Java, AWS, GCP, and Azure. I also acquired multiple skills, such as SQL, Python, and data analytics, that enabled me to deliver quality and efficient results. I am AWS Certified Developer – Associate, and I have a keen interest in learning new technologies and tools. I am passionate about creating a positive impact in the world through my work and hobbies.
