I am currently pursuing an M.S. in Business Analytics (MSBA) at the National University of Singapore (NUS). My academic journey is enriched by the joint expertise of NUS Business School and NUS Computing, enabling me to bridge the gap between cutting-edge analytics and real-world business challenges.

I am a part-time data analyst intern at Arta Finance. This hands-on role allows me to deepen my understanding of the finance industry, particularly in data-driven decision-making, while directly impacting Arta's growth trajectory.

Before joining NUS, I gained valuable experience as an Analyst Intern at Bain & Company in New Delhi, specializing in data & technology within the performance improvement practice. My work focused on enhancing operations excellence benchmarking capabilities and leading procurement-related cost transformation projects, including Bain’s proprietary Buy Better + Spend Better® framework.

Previously, I interned at Paisabazaar.com, India's largest and most trusted platform for financial products, developing prediction models for credit card limits and disbursals. I also interned at TransOrg Analytics and worked part-time at Spenny (now part of CRED), a Y-combinator backed micro-savings app.

I am best reached by email at shlok.kamat@comp.nus.edu.sg. Feel free to reach out about my research or anything else I might be able to help with. For more details, check my CV
