Experience
Senior Research Analyst
Oct 2024 — Present · New York, NY, US
RAKSHA is a geopolitical risk and anticipatory intelligence firm that works with institutions navigating fragility, complexity, and transformation. We combine AI-driven signal detection with deep contextual foresight to surface early-stage risks and design strategic responses before they escalate. We partner with corporates, multinationals, and technology firms (securing advantage in contested, fast-changing markets); pension funds, family offices, and philanthropic capital (seeking early intelligence to protect assets and shape influence) and multilaterals, INGOs, and research networks (embedding systemic risk detection into strategy, policy, and operations).As part of RAKSHA\'s consulting team, I lead forward-looking research, bringing a systems thinking lens to make sense of implications for decision-makers. Past projects include:• Produced an analysis of global election trends and their implications for Rockefeller Philanthropies.• Led horizon scanning of emerging risks impacting Nepal\'s development pathways for UNRCO.
