Hey! I'm Yash Dhaundiyal, and I’m passionate about uncovering the "why" behind the numbers—translating data into insights that drive real-world decisions. As a Bachelor of International Economics student at UBC, I’ve worked on projects analyzing market inefficiencies, economic policies, and strategic decision-making.
Beyond research, I thrive on clear and engaging communication, ensuring insights don’t just stay buried in data but become ideas that inspire action. I seek opportunities to collaborate with people who share a genuine passion for research and problem-solving.
