Summary
Contract Negotiation
Oral Communication I am currently pursuing a Master’s in Engineering Management
Teaching (Technology) at Gies College of Business, University of Illinois
Urbana-Champaign, with a focus on non-technical roles such as
operations management, business analysis, Management Consulting
and project management. My passion lies in driving strategic growth
and operational efficiency in dynamic environments.
Prior to joining UIUC, I held several leadership positions that honed
my abilities in project management and external relations. As the
Director of External Affairs for the Career Development Cell (CDC) at
MAIT, I was responsible for establishing relationships with industry
professionals and recruiters, organizing large-scale events, and
securing opportunities for students. I played a key role in connecting
students with top-tier companies and led initiatives like webinars and
workshops to enhance their professional development.
At Modulus Academy, I served as a Project Manager, where I
spearheaded efforts to scale the coaching institute in a competitive
market. My responsibilities included resource planning, partnership
development with over 100 schools, and managing admissions,
leading to a 150% increase in student enrollment in the first year.
I also directed branding, marketing, and external communications,
which significantly contributed to revenue growth.
During my Program Manager Internship at Qualcomm, I worked
closely with cross-functional teams to streamline project timelines
and ensure effective communication across departments. This
experience allowed me to sharpen my project management skills
and develop a deep understanding of business operations in a
corporate setting.

In addition to these roles, I’ve held leadership positions such as
President of the Hostel and General Secretary of UDAAN, where
I organized events and initiatives aimed at improving the student
experience.
I am always eager to connect with professionals and explore
opportunities in Project management, business analysis, operations,
and consulting, where I can leverage my skills and strengths to
create impactful solutions.
