What I'm looking for

I’m looking to apply Mandarin primary-source research, political risk assessment, and cross-lingual analysis to corporate due diligence, market-entry intelligence, and China-focused advisory work.

I investigate China’s provincial governance architecture and sub-national investment dynamics, drawing on Mandarin-language primary sources, English corporate records, and Hindi and English research materials. My independent research examines how Itochu Corporation built institutional knowledge of Liaoning Province, connecting central policy signals with provincial operational realities relevant to foreign firms.

I’ve conducted on-ground research in Beijing and delivered Chinese-to-English and Chinese-to-Hindi translation work for Rikaian Technology and SG Analytics. I also conducted fieldwork with Tibetan government-in-exile officials through the Gurukul Fellowship, exploring diaspora governance and how institutions preserve knowledge across borders.
