Incoming Strategy Summer Intern
I’ll be joining Accenture in New York for a summer internship in strategy.
Hi, I’m Suhas.
A trip to Cannon Beach can leave you thinking about many things. For me, it was the national debt. That curiosity turned into a Substack essay, as did a North Korean Godzilla movie that sparked an exploration of AI.
These ideas find their way into The Mind of Suhas, alongside columns for The Daily Illini and The Young Investors Club, a book written to help teenagers understand investing.
At AbbVie, my work was on building tools to improve market research planning and systems monitoring. Through Illinois Business Consulting, the work has involved helping companies evaluate new market opportunities. The next chapter begins with Accenture Strategy in New York in summer 2027.
Currently I’m studying finance at Gies College of Business at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, with graduation expected in December 2027.

The Young Investors Club
Making investing approachable for teenagers
I wrote The Young Investors Club as a teenager for people who wanted to understand their money but weren’t sure where to start. It introduces asset classes, risk, and business analysis, helping young readers build a foundation for making their own financial decisions.
The book grew out of my interest in financial education and my work founding the Oregon Young Investors Club, where I helped introduce students to personal finance and investing.
