Originally from New Delhi, India, I moved to Halifax three years ago to chase the classic brown kid dream: Computer Science degree → Google/Microsoft → make my parents proud. Simple, right?

Plot twist: Second semester, I took a random financial accounting class on a whim (and management science because why not). Turns out, accounting is just adding up numbers differently than stats, finance is applied logic with better buzzwords, and suddenly my "straightforward CS path" wasn't so straightforward anymore. Added a Business Administration major and never looked back.

Now I'm that guy who genuinely gets excited about both Python scripts and financial models. Currently splitting time between data research at SMU (making AI less creepy, analyzing TikTok virality) and financial analysis at JD Irving. Still figuring out if I want to end up at a big tech firm (infinite possibilities) or finance (the buzz, the complexity, and yeah okay, the money).

The plan? Industry experience at somewhere massive first—tech or finance, whoever makes the better offer—then eventually the highest level of education I can get. MBA? PhD? CFA? Yes. (I'll decide later.)

When I'm not buried in spreadsheets or debugging code, you'll find me at the gym or hanging out with my friend in downtown, or explaining to my parents why I still don't have a Google offer yet. Always open to conversations about career pivots, cross-disciplinary chaos, and why finance is secretly just fancy addition.
