About Anish Agarwal

Curiosity fuels my desire to understand the world around us, driving me to question how and why things function as they do. Just like everything in life, I succeeded at some and failed at others.As an IIT Kharagpur graduate, I\'ve delved into various fields during my college years, including machine learning, finance, blockchain, and web development, through multiple internships. My passion for tackling challenging algorithmic problems has earned me an Expert rating on Codeforces and a 5-star rating on CodeChef. I excel at exploring and adapting to new tools and technologies.During college, I founded two startups. Although they didn\'t succeed, they provided immense learning experiences. I also launched a tech solutions company, generating significant revenue. My professional journey led me to Goldman Sachs, where I\'ve worked in diverse teams such as mortgage structuring, rates structuring, and real estate investing. This experience offered a steep learning curve, blending finance and tech seamlessly.I am passionate about identifying problems and creating meaningful solutions. I believe opportunities abound around us; we just need to seize them. In my 20s and still discovering my purpose, I\'m enthusiastic about exploring new ventures.There\'s a real person behind this profile, too! In my free time, you might find me: cooking, writing poetry, listening to podcasts, or playing cricket or badminton with friends! Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn or schedule a meeting on Calendly. I\'m in Bangalore and always looking forward to an insightful conversation over coffee.
