Class of 2027

As a kid, people would reach out to me for increasing their WiFi speeds by modifying router settings and similar tech errands. My interest in computers led me to get an undergraduate engineering degree in Computer Science. 

I took up a Sales/Post-Sales role at AWS from campus where I worked with more than 100 clients move from private datacenters to AWS cloud and also modernize their cloud infrastructure.

I am pursuing the MBA to acquire management skills and make my overall skill-set more well rounded for long term success in my career. At Ross, I am surrounded by an ambitious and encouraging community where my peers and alumni are invested to help me succeed.

Outside of work, I am an avid trekker, cyclist and runner and have trekked across most Himalayan valleys like Lahaul Spiti, Valley of Flowers, etc. I was also a Work-life balance advocate at AWS where I completed cycling and running challenges and motivated my team for the same.
