What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to apply my research skills in impactful projects, preferably in social impact or policy analysis, within a collaborative and innovative work environment.

I am a motivated B.Sc. Economics student at Symbiosis School of Economics, Pune, with a strong academic background and hands-on experience in corporate finance and social impact. My internship at NALCO provided me with valuable insights into corporate financial concepts and compliance processes, while my role at Aaina NGO allowed me to lead impactful research on women's safety, reaching over 500 women through workshops and data analysis.

In addition to my internships, I have actively participated in various university projects, including a mixed-methods study on climate change awareness in Pune and an econometric analysis of environmental performance. My academic journey has been complemented by leadership roles, such as serving as a Campus Ambassador for the UN Foundation and managing events at Youth Odisha, where I honed my skills in event management and team coordination.

With a keen interest in international affairs and a commitment to driving social change, I am eager to leverage my skills in research, data analysis, and communication to contribute to meaningful projects in the future.
