I was born in New Jersey but I moved to India at the age of 13. After living in many different neighborhoods I received exposure to individuals from different backgrounds and acquired the ability to adapt to change. The world of Finance and Investment Banking is constantly driven by change with small events having complex impacts on individual companies as well as the economy. My passion for investment banking comes from my desire to analyze companies as a whole instead of individual securities. I believe that each company has a story to tell and it is our duty to analyze the financial statements and build the necessary models to play a role in its plot. I aim to break into investment banking and commit to the field for longer than just the traditional 2-year analyst stint.
