My Approach & Values
I'm Ishani, a Finance student at The College of New Jersey with experience in investment strategy, equity research, and student leadership. As an Investment Strategy Intern at Master Plan Investment Group, I've gained hands-on experience analyzing businesses and developing investment perspectives. Outside of finance, I founded SKY Campus, TCNJ's first meditation and yoga club, and enjoy contributing to financial literacy initiatives. I also make it a priority to stay up to date on current business and market news, which helps me connect what I learn in the classroom to the world around me.
Rigorous Modeling
I build financial models using FCFF and DCF methods to evaluate companies.
Industry Research
I research companies, industries, and market trends to develop informed investment perspectives.
Financial Curiosity
I stay up to date on business news and enjoy exploring financial literacy initiatives beyond the classroom.
