About

Hi, I’m Avneesh! I recently graduated from IIT Kharagpur, where I spent five amazing years exploring everything from strategy and startups to sustainability and social impact. Along the way, I’ve worked on making lending smarter for SMEs, helped cut down plastic waste in food delivery and many more interesting problems. During college, I had the chance to lead one of the largest placement drives across IITs, I’ve also co-organized cultural activities, played competitive sports, and enjoyed solving real-world challenges through national-level competitions. Always up for a good chat, an interesting problem to solve, or a game of cricket. Let’s connect: avneeshshukla582@gmail.com
