About me

I am an interdisciplinary researcher at the intersection of Strategic Management (SGM) and International Business (IB). My research uses social network analyses and network theories to investigate questions related to investment networks, board networks, and interfirm networks.


Before entering academia, I worked across various industries, including chemicals (sustainable polymers), commodities trading (agricultural products - CME), and social impact bonds. I also consulted extensively for auto-component manufacturers in India and contributed to India's 30/30 Industrial Policy
