Dhriti Hariharan

Overview

Dhriti Hariharan is a final-year student at Krea University, double majoring in Economics and Environmental Studies. She is driven by a curiosity for how strategy, analysis, and data can solve real-world challenges, and enjoys critical thinking, experimentation, and translating insights into impact.

Her experience spans research, sustainability, business strategy, and leadership. At ASSIST, she developed go-to-market strategies, marketing content, and reports to support a new initiative’s positioning. As an Associate Researcher with Professor Bharath Sundaram, she co-authored a study on forest valuation in India, conducting data analysis, visualizations, and contributing to a paper now under review. At Beyond Sustainability, she applied ESG and carbon accounting frameworks to client projects, simplifying complex metrics into actionable insights.

Dhriti has also been a three-time peer tutor and mentor at Krea’s Centre for Writing & Pedagogy, guiding students in academic writing and critical analysis. She has held creative and leadership roles, including leading marketing and serving on the advisory board of TEDx Krea University, and contributing to UI/UX design for campus platforms.
She brings strong technical and analytical skills — spanning statistical and financial analysis, research, R, Python, Excel, and data visualisation — and thrives on curiosity, commitment, and depth. She is keen to contribute to teams in consulting, strategy, ESG, climate finance, or impact investing to drive measurable change.
