Biography
I was born in India during the vibrant 1980s in a small, close-knit community surrounded by open fields and wooded landscapes. My childhood was filled with friendships, exploration, games, and curiosity about how things worked.
During my college years, I developed a deep passion for computer programming. I enjoyed building games, creating engineering tools, and developing simulation software capable of transforming ideas into practical solutions.
My academic journey eventually led me to mechanical engineering. After completing my Master's degree at the National Institute of Technology Calicut, I began my professional career at General Electric and later at Delphi Automotive, where I gained valuable industrial engineering experience.
Although I enjoyed industry, I was strongly drawn toward deeper scientific understanding and advanced research. This motivation brought me back to academia, where years of research and laboratory work ultimately led to my doctoral degree in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.
Today, I serve as an Assistant Professor engaged in research involving molecular simulations, machine learning, nanoscale heat transfer, and computational biomedicine. My work combines physics-based simulations and AI-driven methods to study evaporation, water-material interactions, thermal management systems, and blood clot mechanics.
Through research, teaching, and mentorship, my goal is to continue learning while inspiring future generations of engineers and scientists to explore the beauty of science, computation, and innovation.
