When deciding to come to Leeds, Amruta Kelshiker was interested in a collaborative environment, practical experience, and, of course, the location. As she finishes up her last year, she has benefitted from supportive faculty and gaining skills she’s confident will take her far into her finance career, where she aspires to integrate sustainable practices into investment strategies. She wants to help clients navigate the financial market’s complexities while promoting responsible, long-term growth. This past year, she lived in Seville, Spain, and San Franciso, two cities where she didn’t know anyone—a testament to her spirit of personal and professional growth.
“Navigating life in a different culture and environment was both challenging and rewarding. It taught me resilience, adaptability and how to embrace new experiences. This period significantly broadened my perspective and helped me grow personally and professionally.”
