Hi, I'm Rudransh.
Moving countries was the biggest risk I have ever taken. I just turned 17. No plan B, just a belief that if there was one place in the world to build something real, it was here.
If I had to describe myself in three words I would say ambitious, stubborn, and curious. I moved with nothing but a plan and I have been figuring it out one uncomfortable step at a time ever since.
Experiences that shaped me.
Consultant
One of the most exciting experiences I have had. I have always wanted to work at the forefront of artificial intelligence and this opportunity was exactly that. Training large language models was genuinely fascinating work and pushed me to think differently about where technology and human judgment intersect.
Transfer Pricing Intern
One of the most formative experiences I have had professionally. Transfer pricing sits at the intersection of international tax, economics, and corporate strategy and I learned more in those two months than I expected. It gave me a real foundation in how global businesses operate and was a turning point for my professional development.
Research Analyst
I knew studying in the United States was a privilege, so I started networking before I even started college. Enrolling in a game theory course eventually led to this internship because the founder of the nonprofit happened to be based in Washington D.C. as well. My freshman year taught me the power of putting yourself out there and this experience was proof of that.
Youth Delegate
This was my transition summer between school and college and it ended up being one of the most eye opening experiences of my life. Focused on the Sustainable Development Goals, it was the first time I worked alongside people from completely different backgrounds, cultures, and countries. Learning how work culture differs across the world genuinely prepared me for college in the United States as an international student.
Student Researcher
A competitive program with less than 15 percent acceptance. I got to work in the space of the Sustainable Development Goals and had the opportunity to present my idea of "Pet Facebook" in front of officials from the United Nations Global Compact Network India. One of the earliest moments where I realised that showing up with a real idea opens doors.
Rotational Intern
My first exposure to the corporate world through my school's co op program. A rotational internship across finance, accounting, sales and purchase, and the store department. It taught me how a large hospitality operation actually functions from the inside and introduced me to an underrated skill called space management which came in handy when I was moving into my dorm for college.
Projects and publications.
VisaVault
VisaVault came from a personal frustration. Navigating the United States immigration system as an international student is genuinely difficult. Having grown up using Digilocker in India, I saw a gap. There was nothing like it built for international students in the United States. VisaVault is the attempt to fix that.

Walking into the Spring Meetings I expected inflation forecasts and policy frameworks. What I found was a world being reshaped by risk, not as a temporary phase but as the defining feature of the global economy.
