About me: I graduated from Shri Ram College of Commerce in India 2022 with a degree in economics. I then joined Accenture, where I spent four years working with clients across the UK, North America, the Middle East, Japan and Latin America.

Throughout my consulting experience, I discovered that I’m most drawn to projects at the intersection of strategy, customer insight and growth, inspiring my interest in consumer-focused businesses and brand strategy. I chose to pursue an MBA at London Business School to explore new industries, broaden my perspective and learn from a truly diverse cohort, world-class faculty and hands-on learning opportunities. I’m particularly interested in consumer goods, technology and healthcare industries.

Outside the classroom, I’m passionate about animal welfare and have led adoption drives for stray dogs. I’m also a karate black belt and US Open gold medallist, and I have recently taken up rugby at London Business School! I enjoy reading, photography and playing board games and video games. In London, I love exploring independent bookshops, discovering new coffee spots and wandering around Regent’s Park.

Having benefited from others’ generosity during my MBA application journey, I’m excited to pay it forward and help prospective students discover whether London Business School is the right fit for them.

Three topics I can be approached about: Marketing; pivoting careers; moving to London.
