Abhisek completed the University of Auckland Certificate in Foundation Studies with UP Education in 2011. In addition to gaining entry to his Bachelor of Commerce and postgraduate degree with the University of Auckland, the foundation programme helped him adapt to New Zealand culture and connect with a vast network of international students.

Currently, he is based in the PwC office in New York City in the USA to support his global retail, consumer goods and private equity clients. Having placed himself among several prestigious multi-national firms over the last decade, Abhisek is living proof of how far you can go with the UP Education Foundation Studies programme.
