Economics and data-driven research analyst skilled in Python, R, SQL, and market insights.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Economics graduate student at IIT Roorkee (M.Sc. Economics) with hands-on experience as a Research Analyst Intern, where I supported strategy and transformation work through market research, competitor analysis, and decision-ready dashboards. I’ve analyzed 100+ competitor profiles and built research frameworks that supported 10+ client presentations.
At the University of California, Berkeley, Haas School of Business, I worked with large-scale socioeconomic data from 2.3M+ rural households in Bihar, identifying development challenges and structural constraints. I also developed policy recommendations grounded in inclusive education and employment-driven insights, including findings on women’s education and workforce participation.
I bring a practical analytics mindset from projects and internships, from running two-way fixed effects panel regression on digital finance and ESG outcomes to building customer segmentation models using PCA, K-Means, and t-SNE. I’m energized by turning complex data into clear, actionable insights—whether for research teams, product/marketing strategy, or business decision-making.
