About Akshay Kumar
email: k••••••@wharton.upenn.edu Hi, I\'m Akshay. I’m a student in Penn’s Life Sciences & Management program studying Statistics at Wharton and Biology at the College, alongside an Accelerated Masters from Penn Engineering. I’m passionate about how data, business strategy, and innovation intersect to drive real-world impact in technology and biotech. My experiences mentoring AI and biotech research fellows, leading fundraising teams, and managing cross-functional projects have shaped my interest in business operations, analytics, and scalable problem-solving. I\'m eager to keep learning more about this intersection in my studies, and to keep driving forward real impact through innovation.
