My story

Commerce student who wandered into accounts, survived an MBA, and somehow landed in investment banking.

How I got into investment banking

Honestly, a lot of it was luck. IndigoEdge happened to be my first shortlist at MDI, and through the process I realised investment banking was something I’d really enjoy.

What keeps me up at night

Deadlines, mostly overthinking, and sometimes just a really good series/book.

My advice to entrepreneurs

I’m probably too early in my career to give advice, but the founders I’ve seen succeed seem to stay very close to their customers and remain incredibly persistent.

My inspirations

Mostly people around me - family, mentors, friends and colleagues who quietly do their work well and stay grounded.

What excites me

Watching an idea slowly turn into something real.

Best piece of advice given to me

“Focus on what you can control.”

What IndigoEdge is to me

An opportunity to learn from some of the best people in the industry and a front-row seat to the journey of ambitious founders.

My key focus and interests

Still in the ‘learn everything’ phase before specialising, but consumer brands and e-commerce are particularly interesting.

What I enjoy doing in my free time

Cooking, video calls with friends in other cities, and the occasional Netflix spiral.
