What I'm looking for

I seek analyst roles where I can apply AI and market research expertise to deliver strategic insights, collaborate cross-functionally, and drive data-informed decisions in a client-focused environment.

I am a research-driven market analyst with a strong foundation in AI, cloud technologies, and competitive intelligence, backed by a PGDM and a B.Tech in Computer Science.

At Counterpoint Research I own the AI 360 Report and deliver actionable insights to major clients, while maintaining large technology and market databases to support dashboards and client deliverables.

Previous internships at Kantar and Gartner strengthened my quantitative research, Magic Quadrant support, competitive analysis, and use of generative AI to streamline workflows and boost analyst productivity.

I combine rigorous financial analysis experience from a corporate finance internship with practical project work in investment banking simulations and industry research, delivering clear recommendations and high-quality client presentations.
