I work directly with South American (Brazil, Argentina and Chile) stakeholders and in the past I have also had experience working with USA and UK clients. I have recently won an award in office for outstanding performance within 2 months of joining a new team. Alongside work, I engage into community work - teaching underprivileged kids in remote rural areas during Covid, cancer prevention fund raising for Global Cancer Concern and as a Climate Activist under UNFCCC. Apart from this, I had consistent proficiency and top 3 rank in academics right through my academic life. I have recognitions in debates and various public speaking competitions, a bachelor’s degree in Classical music and numerous team activities and event organising.

After 5 years in the Manufacturing in Private Defence Sector as a technology consultant in Material Engineering, I wish to upskill, build a network and switch to Management Consulting for the Manufacturing Sector

Academic:

- Graduated with a Bachelor's in Economics (2021) from one of the top three universities in my country, an institution with a strong alumni presence at London Business School, my target program.
- While my GPA was below average due to personal challenges early on, I significantly improved my performance during the final years, graduating with strength in the fields that shaped my professional path.
- I co-founded my university’s Finance Club, the first of its kind in the country. It quickly became a launchpad for students securing top finance roles and continues to be a key platform for future talent.

Professional:
- I began my career at a New York–based global elite boutique investment bank, one of the top three firms worldwide, where I spent four years in M&A (Analyst and Associate) based in Bogotá.
- Recognized as a top-bucket performer, I was fast-tracked twice, advising on over 4 billion dollars in closed transactions across Latin America.
- Afterward, I co-founded a real estate private equity firm, where I currently lead strategy and fundraising. We are in the process of raising 50 million dollars from institutional investors and family offices, targeting high-quality opportunities across the region.

Rationale for Pursuing an MBA:
- Geographic expansion. Relocating to the United Kingdom is both a personal and professional step to learn, grow, and operate in one of the most sophisticated financial ecosystems in the world.
- Career acceleration. I aim to transition into Private Equity or Investment Banking in London, where I am already in conversation with former colleagues from my previous firm.
- Long-term vision. My ambition is to found an investment firm focused on Latin America, connecting global capital with the region’s most compelling opportunities.

- Bachelors in commerce(Honours) from SRCC, University of Delhi ; Received Gold medal (9.054/10)

- worked in HCL Technologies Limited as Senior Executive in Financial Planning & Analysis for 25 months
