About Me

Finance professional
focused on execution & systems.

Asset operations, structured finance, and automation — building systems that eliminate inefficiencies.

I'm a B.Com student at PSG College of Arts & Science, Coimbatore, CGPA 9. Since December 2025 I've been working as an Asset Operations Intern at BetterInvest, a fintech platform that finances film and media productions.

My work sits at the intersection of structured finance, legal documentation, and operational automation. I work on the execution side of finance — and where processes break, I design systems to make them scalable.

Outside of work, I run Capital Story — a financial newsletter with 1,300+ subscribers — invest actively in Indian equities.
