Our Story

We live in a world where we digest an array of information from a variety of sources in seconds. At times, we may prefer to use heuristics, or mental shortcuts, when making decisions. I created “Assumptions Aside” to help others to take a second look at people, places, and things. I invite you to follow along with my journey into the world of health, education, labor, and everything in between.

About Me

Hi, I'm Anmol.

I'm a social scientist, economics consultant, and passionate editorial researcher. Born in southside Atlanta, but raised in Louisville by Indian immigrant parents, I grew up with a unique perspective on life. Not only have I lived in various cities around the world, but I have also traveled across continents - from La Libertad, El Salvador to Paris, France to Mumbai, India. I have seen grand historical sites, classic masterpieces, racial disparity, classism, and much more. The privilege of seeing some of the world’s most beautiful places has been tempered by the impact of stark contrasts in living conditions and lifestyles.

The inequity I witnessed drove me to pursue Economics and Finance at the University of Louisville College of Business. I further developed my quantitative skills at the London School of Economics & Political Science to advocate for data-driven decision-making.

While attending grad school, I was honored to be a working group leader for the Rationale, LSE’s Economics Society’s working paper series. This sparked my interest in and passion for research. I planned, organized, and delegated different aspects of the research process with undergraduate and graduate economics students. I overlooked the model specification, analysis, writing, and editing of the publication.

I have 6+ years of economics and policy analysis experience in the corporate, academia, and consultancy fields. From working with a Fortune 500 company to advising at an international consulting firm, I have a history of contributing to research and analysis outcomes throughout my career.
