US 501(c)(3) · First South Asia Chapter · Since 2023
I joined Edunomix — a fiscally-sponsored 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in the United States — in 10th grade as a researcher, exploring financial literacy and its measurable impact on young learners. The work raised a larger question: could this model be adapted meaningfully for India, where access to practical financial education remains thin across most school systems?
That question led to the founding of the India Chapter of the Edunomix Institute — the organisation's first presence in South Asia. What began as a research role grew into a leadership-driven effort to scale financial literacy through education, outreach, and institutional reach.
As President of the India Chapter, the work has spanned three distinct streams: direct education, international outreach, and competitive programming. Financial literacy workshops and seminars were designed and delivered for students across diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, translating macroeconomic concepts into practical, real-world understanding.
This work has also extended beyond India. Displaced Ukrainian students were taught as part of an international outreach effort — reinforcing the view that financial literacy is a tool for resilience in conditions of instability, not merely a classroom subject for comfortable circumstances.
In 2025, the Edunomix India Economics Essay Competition was launched, open to high school students across the country. The goal was direct: get young Indians thinking seriously about money, systems, and the economy around them. Entries came in on topics spanning personal finance, economic policy, and financial inclusion — drawing participation from over 19 states and 54 schools.
Alongside leadership, the role involved producing research and analysis published on the Edunomix platform — covering economic events and policy developments relevant to Indian and global audiences.
