What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply business analytics and research to drive social impact, learn operations and investment processes, and grow into project or program leadership in a collaborative, mission-driven organization.

I am a Bachelor of Business Administration student specializing in Business Analytics with hands-on experience in research, operations, and nonprofit leadership.

I have completed internships in social impact research and operations where I developed reports, supported fundraising proposals, and learned trade execution and post-trade processes.

I founded and led two initiatives—Ikhtiyaar (a youth-driven nonprofit) and ChirpStudio—overseeing strategy, volunteer recruitment, partnerships, marketing, and project execution while mentoring teams.

I am recognized for leadership roles across student and community organizations and focus on data-driven program design, community outreach, and creating measurable social impact.
