About

Currently, I am working as a Post-doctoral fellow at the Indian Institute of Madras. As an Infrared Thermography NDT group lead, I work in the development of quantitative models and developing experimental schemes for utilizing infrared frequencies for flaw detection, imaging, and material characterization.

I am also working towards building my first deep-tech venture.

I am doing this as Founder in Residence at Entrepreneur First, an incubator-cum-accelerator that has presence in 6 countries and is backed by the founders of LinkedIn, Paypal, and Google Deepmind.
 
I have completed my Ph.D. at the University of Montpellier in Mechanics and Civil Engineering specialized in welding engineering.  

My quantitative, data-driven approach to complex problems is guided by my diverse experience in a wide variety of science and engineering domains. I approach every challenge I take on with a collaborative, analytical, and pragmatic strategy and drive projects to successful completion.
