I explored the strategic importance of international collaboration in mitigating risks arising from geopolitical tensions and other idiosyncratic factors, such as the impact of COVID-related border closures. I developed a game-theoretical framework to illustrate how the international relations of parent countries can influence multinational corporations to form International Joint Ventures (IJVs) as a risk mitigation strategy. This study highlighted that economic parameters alone might not suffice, as the possibility of tariff imposition due to strained international relations is primarily influenced by geopolitics.

I conducted a rigorous analysis to verify the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) using the R programming language. By collecting and analyzing closing prices of S&P 500 BSE stocks over 15 years, I calculated annualized returns and built a variance-covariance matrix. Additionally, I determined monthly returns for the S&P 500 BSE and performed regression analysis to empirically test the Security Market Line.

This project examines the causal relationship between India's trade liberalization and income inequality while controlling for various income inequality factors. I employed programmed loops in R to calculate Gini coefficients and visualized the relationship between trade openness and income inequality trends over time using trade-to-GDP ratios.

I presented a paper that delved into the impact of time zone differences on international trade and factor markets. By introducing a new dimension to existing trade theories, I explined how time-saving improvements in business-services trade can lead to economic growth, extending beyond conventional trade models.

This project extended the analysis of Rybczynski's theorem to study variations in quantities of two factors of production using Prof. Jones's concept. I collected extensive time series data, performed statistical tests for stationarity, estimated GDP with the translog method, and ran sector-wise time series regression to determine factor endowments and intensities.

This project involved a comprehensive analysis of India's trade in HS-710239 Diamonds (excluding industrial diamonds) from 2002 to 2019. I assessed the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA) between India and partner countries, evaluated intensive and extensive margins, analyzed price and quantitative margins, and highlighted India's trade dynamics in the diamond sector.

I presented two talks at DebConf 2021. The first discussed software localization workflows, emphasizing their importance in development and communications infrastructure. The second talk focused on freedom and privacy guidelines, critically reviewing their significance in the context of free and open-source software applications.

currently, i’m available to work full-time, and am looking for both full-time and part-time engagements.
