About

Business development with a finance core and an AI edge.

I've completed my third year of BBA (Hons) at Kingston University, London, with a deep interest in finance and artificial intelligence. I build the things that move deals: valuation models, investor decks, export documentation, and financing structures — increasingly augmented with AI automation that makes the work faster and sharper.

I've supported real fundraising, structured large financing pipelines, driven export deal development, and shipped AI workflows that grew an audience from zero. Currently splitting time between Vadodara, India and London, UK on a UK student visa.

"My deep-end aim is to own a private equity fund — helping real businesses grow while preserving the legacy of family ownership."
