I am a Finance Enthusiast. I like to keep learning, even if it is from scratch!!! I enjoy developing and upgrading my skill set and with finding the right employer, I am also looking for the right mentor. 

My time at Kotak Securities helped me develop skills like market research and analysis of market trends to make sound investment decisions. I have experience in a fast-paced work environment with a commitment to delivering results. I was employed by BSR & Co. in the compliance and risk division. I polished my Excel skills, maintained a positive client relationship, and also gained knowledge on the different compliance and regulatory requirements of banks (local and international) as well as NBFCs. My recent employment at Doughnut Time has helped me work on my communication skills and helped me manage and develop skills to ensure our customers have the best service.

My Master's degree in Investment Banking at Queen Mary University of London enabled me to network with both my fellow course-mates and applicants from other courses. The course included several hands-on assignments in which we had to work on raising capital for the company, taking a private company public, compiling financials, and giving presentations on a merger or one company acquiring another. I've also given presentations on different pitch decks for venture capital and private equity firms. This has been an interesting and dynamic course. My second master's degree is an MCom in business management, which has helped me learn about the fundamentals of business. It also taught me about various strategies utilised by different organisations and the environment in which they operate.
