What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an analyst role where I can apply econometrics and financial modelling to turn complex datasets into decision-ready insights, collaborate with research teams, and grow through structured problem-solving and real valuation work.

I’m a results-driven Economics (Honours) graduate with a quantitative foundation in econometrics, financial modelling, and data analytics. Through hands-on work in equity research, corporate valuation, and policy analysis, I synthesize complex datasets into actionable, decision-ready outputs using structured problem-solving.

I’ve built an AI-powered JEE Advanced mock test platform end-to-end—integrating Gemini AI for code generation, Supabase for authentication and real-time tracking, and deploying via Vercel. Alongside this, I authored an independent economic analysis on “Artificial Intelligence, Employment Disruption and Universal Basic Income” using panel data econometrics and time-series regression to evaluate employment displacement and UBI’s fiscal and distributional impacts.
