Bio:

After completing a dual degree in Mechanical Engineering in 2021 from Rajiv Gandhi Proudyogiki Vishwavidyalaya (RGPV), Bhopal, I worked as a Junior Research Fellow at the Energy Centre, MANIT Bhopal (2023-2024), where I explored the cold flow properties of biofuels derived from waste cooking oil.

In December 2024, I joined the IITB-Monash Research Academy as a PhD scholar, where I am currently working on optimizing policies and designing Green Supply Chain Finance (GSCF) instruments to facilitate low-carbon transitions for Indian MSMEs. My research aims to bridge financial, technical, and policy gaps that prevent small enterprises from adopting green technologies, an area of critical importance to India’s inclusive and sustainable development goals.

Beyond academics, I am someone who finds joy in music, dancing, reading, and exploring new places.
