Vraj Mehta

Before coming to Ross, I worked in the mining and energy sectors in India, leading engineering teams and finding smarter ways to make operations more efficient. One of the highlights was at Hindustan Zinc Limited, where I led a large team and helped boost maintenance compliance to nearly 100% with zero safety incidents. That experience taught me just how powerful good management can be—and made me want to understand the business side more deeply.

At Ross, I focused on Strategy and Finance, aiming to transition into consulting. I was involved with the Consulting Club and the Energy Club, and I served on the MBA Council, where I enjoyed contributing to the Ross community and helping shape the student experience. I really valued connecting with people who shared my passion for solving tough problems with a purpose-driven mindset.

Now, as a Ross grad working at a top consulting firm, I’m excited to help organizations navigate complexity while keeping impact at the center of what they do.

Outside of work, I’m usually chasing night skies with my camera, experimenting with dishes from at least six different cuisines, or reminiscing about the time I had a pet tarantula—because, why not?

Please feel free to reach out if you have questions about transitioning to consulting, life at Ross, or the international student experience!
