Ankit is a technologist with a conscience and a strategist with a soul. A Computer Science graduate from BIT Mesra, his journey began as a Software Engineer at Samsung, where he quickly rose to manage projects and people—balancing technical finesse with leadership depth. But for Ankit, impact goes beyond deliverables. At Samsung, he channeled his role into purpose through CSR initiatives, sowing seeds of social change alongside innovation. This blend of heart and mind led him to UCLA Anderson for an MBA, sharpening his edge in business strategy and leadership. At Rakuten, he applied these skills in an AI Strategy Internship, bringing human-centered intelligence to cutting-edge solutions. His compass has always pointed toward meaningful growth—evident in his ongoing work with Project Mercy in Ethiopia, from developing their Theory of Change to launching a transformative IT program. Whether it's fostering sustainability, mentoring peers, or capturing moments through photography, Ankit is a self-starter who listens deeply, acts deliberately, leads with empathy, and finds joy in both the hustle and the harmony. In every role, he doesn't just do things right—he does the right things.
